Family Literacy English Classes

Family Literacy English classes are for West Potomac parents and family members to learn about their child's educational journey and school supports available to them.

Sessions are held in room 604 from 6-8pm, most Tuesdays and Thursdays. 

It's a great way to connect with our school leadership, staff and community!
