 Graduation Class of 2022
1. From the Principal's Desk
Dear Members of the Chantilly HS Community:
What a great week! I always enjoy graduation, and Wednesday’s ceremony was especially fun and rewarding. Our student speakers were insightful, witty, and inspiring. Our faculty speaker, Mr. Luc Nguyen, gave a speech that reminded me that one does not have to be old to be wise. I also simply love that graduation brings all members of the CHS community together to celebrate students as they complete one chapter of their life and begin another. In addition to graduation, Chantilly students were also recognized on Fox News as part of their “Zip Trip” series. CHS graduate Lauren Siesky and our Varsity Baseball Team were profiled as part of the series. To view the segments, please see the links below:

Congratulations to Ms. Emily Phelan, SBTS! She has been recognized as an employee who shows that FCPS Cares.
As I finally have a moment to put my thoughts into words following several challenging school years beginning in March of 2019, I would like to acknowledge the outstanding contributions of Emily Phelan, an SBTS at Chantilly High School. Emily’s unflappable patience and understanding of the angst, fears, and challenges teachers faced as we all did our best to offer meaningful lessons and comforting exchanges with our students, both intellectual as well as emotional, was incomparable. As a veteran teacher, yet one with limited technological skills, I would have been lost without Emily’s expertise. She was readily available offering wisdom and step-by-step guidance during the implementation of Blackboard, Blackboard Ultra, and oh, then go ahead and throw in Schoology and Zoom as well as various other forms of technological communication and interactions during these past few years of pandemic related obstructions. As my colleagues and I would text a GIF of The Poseidon breaking in half and going down when Blackboard crashed, an email from Emily would pop up with a remedy to help us reconnect with our students. Her clear and direct instructional videos eased our concerns (torment) and offered us hope and inspiration to keep chugging along! I want the county and Chantilly High School to know that Emily is a treasure. She’s a powerhouse of tips, solutions, and cool, fancy pants ideas! To Emily, I appreciate you and all you’ve done to keep me and all of us afloat!
Thank you to Ms. Traci Hopkins, Ms. Laura Richer and all the other parent volunteers that put on our first ANGP in 3 years!
