Virginia lawmakers killed a proposal that would allow some special education students another year of instruction because of the struggles of virtual learning caused by COVID-19.
House Bill 2277 proposed that high school students with special needs who are set to graduate in the 2021 school year and who are 22 years old after Sept. 30, 2020, be allowed to take an extra year and graduate in 2022. Students who are younger than 22 are automatically eligible for another year, according to the Virginia Department of Education.
The Prince William County Service Authority will continue to offer remote instruction to Prince William County students for the remainder of the 2020-21 school year through its popular H2Go Kids Virtual Classroom.
Since September 2020, the Service Authority has used this engaging online learning platform to connect with nearly 7,000 Prince William County School students. Presentations for children in kindergarten through sixth grade align with the Virginia Standards of Learning and include topics such as erosion, weathering, watersheds, protecting our resources and drinking water/wastewater treatment.

Arthur R. Spadafora, 98, of Woodbridge VA passed away peacefully at home on January 24th, 2021 with his family by his side. Arthur was born in 1922 to Pietro and Concetta Spadafora as the youngest of their 4 children. He had one brother and 2 sisters all whom proceeded him in death.
Born and raised in the Bronx NY, he had many stories of life during the depression. He spoke about getting ice for the icebox, his various jobs like the fruit stand, and hanging out with his friends. They were all either playing stickball, hanging out on the street corner, or in the alley playing with baseball cards. Baseball was his favorite sport throughout life and stickball was his favorite sport to play. They would even play games against other neighboring teams. When he played stickball they only had one ball between all of them and they used a broomstick as a bat. From stickball grew his love for baseball. He grew up as an avid NY Yankee fan and remembered seeing many famous players play like Lou Gehrig, Whitey Ford and Babe Ruth. He always enjoyed watching his grandsons play and went to all their games. He was what seemed like a permanent fixture along the fence cheering them on as they came up to bat.
