Principal's Message


Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Our schedule for the Standards of Learning (SOL) tests has been finalized.  Please see below, and plan for your student to be here and ready to perform at their best.  We look forward to looking at the results and supporting students wherever they are in their achievement.  We appreciate your support and help to prepare your student.  Together we can expect great results!

Take-Out/Meal Delivery:

FCPS offers a hot lunch to each student free of charge this schoolyear.  We ask that parents/caregivers refrain from dropping off meals from outside eateries and reinforce with your students that using meal delivery apps is not permitted.  Staffing is not sufficient to connect students with these deliveries and the meals themselves have become an increasing source of distraction in the cafeteria.  Should students have a meal delivered, they’ll be asked to eat it in another location to limit that distraction.
