This image is a collage of candid photos capturing a science or craft activity involving a group of elementary or middle school students and several adult instructors in a school setting, possibly a cafeteria. The theme, suggested by the filename, is a "Witches Brew," likely a Halloween-themed science experiment such as making a lava lamp or other chemical reaction, as evidenced by the beakers, funnels, and brightly colored liquids seen on the tables. The photos show the students actively engaged in the hands-on project, working individually and in small groups under supervision, with a visible American flag in the background of some shots, concluding with a large, smiling group photo of all the participants, indicating the activity was successful and fun.
📢 Important Update for Virginia SNAP Recipients

Virginia will temporarily issue state-funded food assistance on a weekly basis to households’ existing EBT cards while federal SNAP benefits are delayed.

These state funds, called the Virginia Emergency Nutrition Assistance (VENA) program, will:
✅ Use the same EBT cards and beneficiaries as SNAP
✅ Deliver about ¼ of monthly benefits each week
✅ Begin issuing benefits on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in November

For questions or the latest updates, visit DSS.Virginia.gov
or contact your local Department of Social Services office.

Graphic titled “Virginia Acts to Protect SNAP Recipients.” It announces that Governor Glenn Youngkin has launched the Virginia Emergency Nutrition Assistance (VENA) program to provide state-funded food assistance amid a federal shutdown. The program uses the same EBT cards and beneficiaries as SNAP, is funded by Virginia’s budget surplus, and delivers about one-quarter of monthly benefits each week—$37.5 million weekly statewide. Benefits are issued Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in November. The chart lists new VENA payment dates for SNAP groups: Group 1 – Monday, November 3; Group 2 – Wednesday, November 5; Group 3 – Friday, November 7. The graphic also notes that updates and FAQs are available at DSS.Virginia.gov and reminds recipients to keep their EBT cards secure using the ConnectEBT app.

A photograph taken indoors under dramatic, vibrant purple and green stage lighting. A person is standing center, facing away from the camera, wearing a dark baseball-style jersey with 'Cougars 77' stitched across the back. They have their arms stretched out to the sides. In the middle ground, there is a low metal cart, possibly a gurney or hospital bed, with a delicate, abstract, golden-colored sculpture on it. Other people and a wall with two levels of windows are visible in the background, mostly obscured by the dark, smoky, and colorful atmosphere of what appears to be an event or performance.
A large group of teenagers and young adults are dancing in a darkened room, lit by blue and purple ambient light and bright beams of green and amber from disco lights overhead. The dance floor is packed with people.
A group of people, many in costumes, are walking down a narrow hallway with a brick wall on the right. An exit sign and a projected screen are visible at the end of the hall.
🎃 Happy Halloween from CMS and Mrs. Stephens' Class! 👻

A collage of photos showing students in Halloween costumes trick-or-treating inside a school hallway and what appears to be a cafeteria or office area. Several students are holding bags or buckets for candy. The collage is decorated with graphic elements like a smiling ghost, a full moon, a cartoon bat, and jack-o'-lanterns.
Three adults dressed in Oompa Loompa-style costumes with green curly wigs and brown and white outfits are positioned against a fun and whimsical candy factory background.

The background is brightly colored with giant lollipops, swirls of candy, pink clouds, and rivers of melting chocolate.
🔥 Lit Lab Brainpower!

Our students were flexing their math muscles today! They were given 4 numbers and had to create different expressions just by moving the signs ($+$, $-$, $\times$, $\div$) and parentheses. Talk about tricky!

🤯Plus, the creativity was spooky good! 🎃 Given just three letters, students had to construct Halloween vocabulary words. The results were amazing!

A collage of photos showing a "Caramel Apple Bar" surprise for staff, decorated with a fall-themed border of leaves and acorns. The main text reads: "THANKS CMS ADMINISTRATION AND OFFICE STAFF FOR THE SWEET FALL SURPRISE CARAMEL APPLE BAR." Photos include two smiling female staff members, tables set up with slow cookers (likely for warm caramel), bowls of green and yellow apples, and various toppings like sprinkles, crushed nuts, chocolate chips, and M&Ms. One photo shows a finished caramel apple slice creation on a paper plate.
A fall-themed collage expresses thanks, featuring photos related to an orchard and apples. The large, handwritten text "THANK YOU! :)" dominates the center left. The images include a man and a woman standing in front of large bins of apples and a display of pumpkins and gourds, each holding a brown paper bag, a close-up of plastic crates filled with many small red and green apples, and a wooden sign for "JENKINS ORCHARDS" set in a field with rolling hills in the background under a blue sky. The collage is completed with a logo for "CMS" (likely the school from the previous image) featuring a panther mascot, all framed by orange and yellow shapes representing fall leaves and colors.
