June
Want to Keep Learning This Summer?
Tutors can help you with reading, math, and so much more! This summer students can access a tutor through Tutor.com by logging into Schoology. This online program connects students to tutors by voice or text-chat and they work together in our online classroom.
After mid-June, when a student clicks on courses, the courses from the 2021-22 SY will no longer show up since they will be archived in transition to the new school year. Therefore, students must follow the instructions linked here to access Tutor.com from an archived course during the summer months.
Congratulations Chantilly High School Class of 2022!

FCPS' Family Return to School Survey Is Coming Soon
FCPS wants to hear from parents/caregivers about how the school year has gone for their students. You will have an opportunity to provide your feedback on the Family Return to School Survey which will open Tuesday, May 31, and close Friday, June 10.
The survey is part of the office’s continuing evaluation of the pandemic’s impact on our school division. The information you provide will be used, along with other data, to inform FCPS leadership about the return to five days a week of in-person instruction, and support FCPS’ efforts to make improvements that support schools, students, and staff.
As a reminder at Brookfield, we have used ESSER III funding to:
-
Purchase resources that will enhance reading, math, and wellness instruction for all grades
-
Purchase resources and pay staff for after-school academic intervention and wellness opportunities for students (Bronco Time)
-
Provide professional learning opportunities to staff
-
Hire additional staff to provide academic & wellness intervention opportunities during the school day.
