BUDGET

The Fairfax County School Board has adopted the FY 2017 Advertised Budget of $2.67 billion, an increase of 4.8 percent, or $121.4 million, from the FY 2016 Approved Budget. It begins reinvesting in our schools and reverses the impact of the significant cuts sustained since 2008. Key priorities focus on the classroom:

  • Investing in employees, with an emphasis on teacher salaries
  • Reducing class sizes in elementary schools

Community support is critical to ensuring adequate funding for FCPS. Find out how you can help.


CALENDAR

The Fairfax County School Board will consider starting school before Labor Day for the 2017-18 school year, now that Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) qualifies for a waiver from the post-Labor Day requirement because we have accumulated the requisite number of snow days.  The 2016-17 FCPS school year calendar, adopted in December, remains in effect and designates Tuesday, September 6, 2016, as the first day of school.
