STUDENT-PARENT SURVEY FOR FEDERAL IMPACT AID

Beginning on October 13, FCPS will be asking all families to fill out a Student-Parent Survey for Federal Impact Aid.

Returning this form is important because information from this survey results in an additional $3 million in grants each year  from the U.S. Department of Education. These funds are used to support all Fairfax County public schools and centers.

For each school-aged child in your  household, please complete, sign, date, and return the survey to your child's school. If sections 1 and 2 of the survey do not apply to you, just check the boxes in Section 3.

All forms must be signed, dated, and returned by November 5. All results are CONFIDENTIAL.
