With the cold and flu season upon us, your child may be sent home if they have COVID-like symptoms. We want them back in the classroom as soon as they are well, so FCPS has created new options to help families complete the return to school process. Learn more online.
We encourage you to take advantage of the paperless report card option. You will need to log into ParentVUE, then go to “My Account” and select "Go Paperless". The “Go Paperless” option will apply to all of your students, no matter what school/grade level. All parents with a SIS account residing in the home of the student (address of enrollment) must login and select the paperless option.
Many families are finding it stressful and overwhelming to receive a new COVID notification email every time there is a positive case in their child’s school. FCPS has updated our process to provide families some relief.
Once a week, either on Friday or the last day of school for the week, school leadership will share an update if there were any COVID-19 positive cases confirmed in the school that week. The FCPS COVID-19 Health Metrics webpage will still be updated daily for families who wish to know about cases in real time.
Many of the locations in the document above offer testing for uninsured patients. If you do not have a primary doctor, and you are concerned that you have symptoms of COVID-19, you can contact HealthWorks (703-443-2000) or Neighborhood Health (703-535-5568) to be evaluated and schedule a testing appointment. New patients are accepted with or without insurance and on a sliding scale fee if low-income and uninsured. Priority is given to patients with symptoms consistent with COVID-19.
HealthWorks provides COVID-19 testing free for uninsured patients who meet eligibility for the sliding scale fee and do not already have another primary doctor. Patients should call 703-443-2000 to get a telehealth evaluation by a medical provider prior to scheduling a test.
Neighborhood Health provides COVID-19 testing free for uninsured patients who meet eligibility for the sliding scale fee. Patients should call 703-535-5568 to get a telehealth evaluation by a medical provider prior to scheduling a test.
Inova Cares Clinics for Families provides primary care services for patients with Medicaid or low-income uninsured patients up to 400% Federal Poverty Guideline and offers limited COVID-19 testing.
The Fairfax Health District has many low-cost health care resources for individuals who lack health insurance. See: Coronavirus (COVID-19): Health Care Options for the Uninsured
You can also call our Coordinated Services Planning service at 703-222-0880, TTY 711 (Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m - 4:30 p.m.) to talk with someone about your needs and receive advice on services available to you.
The Fairfax County Health Department announced a change in their communication process for students waiting for COVID-19 contact interviews. You may read about these changes on the FCHD website. You may also wish you review the FCHD FAQs for parents of school-aged children. We appreciate the continued partnership between FCPS and FCHD.
Each year, Congress provides financial assistance to local school districts through the Impact Aid Program. We are requesting your assistance in completing the Impact Aid form so that Fairfax County Public Schools can obtain its fair share of funds from this program. Forms will go home on Tuesday, October 19th. The forms sent home are to be returned to the school no later than Friday, October 29, 2021.
Todos los aňos el Congreso proporciona ayuda financiera a los distritos escolares locales por medio del programa de Ayuda por Impacto. Solicitamos su ayuda para completer este formulario de manera que las Escuelas Públicas de Fairfax puedan obtener la parte que les corresponde de los fondos en este programa. Algunos de los maestros mandaron el formulario a la casa el viernes, 19 de Octubre. Tienen que devolver estos formularios a la escuela, el viernes octubre 29, 2021.
Parents can receive text messages from FCPS for emergencies and essential information.
How? Make sure your parent cell phone numbers are listed in the "cell telephone" fields in the parent/guardian contact information section on the emergency care information form for each of your children.
Parents and guardians can view and update emergency contact information online using weCare@school.
Standard message and data charges may apply for text messages depending on your cell phone service plan. More about text messages is available online.
