Tipping the Scales Tipping the Scales for Better Health is a child health promotion project of the Northern Virginia Healthy Kids Coalition. TippingtheScales.net is an online resource center for adults engaged in helping kids lead healthier lives. Obesity has become an urgent public health problem, with 58% of Virginians being overweight or obese. It is a chronic illness, costing more than diabetes or heart disease.To meet the needs created by this growing health concern, Inova Health System established the Healthy Kids Coalition, a partnership with all Northern Virginia jurisdictions to promote a healthier lifestyle for children and families through education on nutrition and exercise, and by creating social, monetary and policy-driven incentives that reinforce long-term change.

Spring Book Fair is Coming June 2-4!
Bookworm Central Chesterbrook's First Annual Spring Book Fair is coming up right after Memorial Day weekend, Tuesday through Friday, June 2-4, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM. We'll have some of the same titles from the presale, plus many more, including games and activity books.
 
Gear up for summer vacation and travel with new books from your favorite series and old standards. We'll have some travel-sized games to take on the road, in addition to new games and bestsellers from previous sales. Remember, games and books make great gifts, so stock up your birthday party stash.
 
If you pre-ordered books in April, you may come by the library anytime during the Fair to pick up your order and browse for more titles.
 
We will not have time to do a reorder on popular titles and get them in by the end of school, so shop early for the best selection!

Longfellow Middle School Coming August 23/24 Session 1 and 25/26 Session 2.

Moving from elementary school to middle school is a big transition. The goal of "Start to Success" is to make a successful and smooth transition. Longfellow Middle School is offering an opportunity for rising 7th grade students to attend a 2-day workshop to get to know our school, meet other students, and to learn some skills to help them meet academic success in the coming year. Students will learn from a cadre of Longfellow teachers as well as current Longfellow students. There is a $35 registration fee payable to Longfellow Middle School. The cost of the program includes Longfellow water bottle, and supplies students will need for program participation. Treats and snacks will be provided during the day. 
 
 
 
 
All three forms and a check for $35 must be turned in to
Longfellow MS by June 25th.
