Kiss and Ride Reminders:

  • The entrances to the Kiss and Ride are located on Poplar Tree Road and Stringfellow Road.
  • Please follow the direction of the staff members that are directing Kiss and Ride Traffic. They are there to keep a continuous flow of traffic and maintain a safe for students and drivers. 
  • Always pull your car up as far as you can go. This allows as many cars as possible to pull into the Drop Off Zone. Please have your student unload as quickly as you can.
  • Traffic delays and backups in the Kiss and Ride are NOT EXCUSED tardies to school. Please plan accordingly especially at the beginning of the school year and on inclement weather days
  • Please do not drop off students in the traffic circle off of Poplar Tree road.

Under Construction: Renovation News

  • Over the break new light poles were installed in the parking lot.
  • Tile flooring has recently been installed in the hallway connecting the addition to the renovated classrooms in the original building. 
  • Construction of the new library, electives wing, and main office addition is progressing on schedule. The goal is to open these new spaces in April 2020.
  • We are excited to plan for the finishes and new furniture for all of our new spaces.
  • Roofing work is ongoing!  You may see cranes and roofing trucks in our Kiss and Ride area over the next few weeks as the roof is constructed over the new front entrance.  Please know that roofing does not take place during school hours over occupied student or staff areas. If you have questions about roofing you can visit our  website to review FAQs and information.

Air Quality:  During construction, questions about indoor air quality arise. The most recent air quality tests for December met or exceeded all standards.   The air quality inside the building is monitored at least once per month.  Please visit the Rocky Run website to review FAQs related to indoor air quality.

If you have specific questions about the renovation, please email them to Administrative Assistant, AJ Ries, ajries@fcps.edu or call the Rocky Run MS main office at 703-802-7700.  

We will post updates, pictures, timelines, etc on this page on our website. This page will also be linked as a static announcement on our homepage as we move through the renovation process.
