Upon return from spring break, we will be transitioning to the new FCPS website.We are excited about the new look and features that are now available and we're sure that you will find it easier to navigate.
If you are not able to find the information you need on our home page, you can use any of the following:
- Search Function, similar to the way you would look for information on Google,
- Top Menu, which links to main topics including About, Academics, Activities, Resources, and Contact
- Full Menu, in the upper left-hand corner of the home page, which shows all the items under the main topics.
Our new site offers several important advantages, including:
- Displaying on mobile devices, an important feature because so many of you are coming to the site through cell phones,
- Enabling the easy sharing of content between school and Fairfax County Public Schools (for example, emergency alerts about weather closures etc. from the main site will be promptly displayed on the school site),
- Enabling the translation of site content into 75 different languages,
- Making navigation of sites easier for parents as children progress through the FCPS schools because all sites will feature similar menus, and
- Featuring accessibility to all users with disabilities (508 compliant).
While we have tried to include all of the information that you have come to rely on, there may be something that we have forgotten. If this is the case, feel free to contact Stephanie Kurspahic at sbkurspahic@fcps.edu.
We hope you’ll visit the website often and stay involved!
