First Steps at New Stafford Schools | Washington DC News

Stafford County’s schools are kicking off the year with a smart, staged return: only pre-K, kindergarten, sixth graders, and ninth graders are heading back today — giving them a quiet, stress-free first day to explore new classrooms, meet teachers, and settle into routines before the full student body arrives. It’s also the official opening day for Hartwood High School — one of three brand-new campuses launching this year — where first-ever “Hartwood Stallions” will walk the halls. Alongside Falls Run and Crow’s Nest elementary schools, these fresh facilities mark a major shift in school boundaries and infrastructure, setting the stage for a smoother, more organized start to the academic year.
