Free and Reduced-Priced Meal Application Coming Soon...
For the past two years, the federal government has provided no-cost meals to all public school students without the need to complete the annual Free and Reduced-Price Meal application. This has expired and now "Free Lunch" application is required to be submitted and be approved to be eligible for free and reduced-price meals for the 2022-23 school year.
Interested families are encouraged to submit the Free and Reduced-Price Meal application ten days prior to the first day of the 2022-23 school year. The online application will be available later this summer and accessible via the FCPS homepage.
Watch your email and FCPS website for more information. Learn more about the Free and Reduced-Price Meal program online.

 English for Speaker of Other Languages (ESOL) students decorated the walls of our Counseling department with different flags from around the world to celebrate the diversity at KJMS. These students painted the flags from their home country themselves with the help and guidance of Ms. Tripathi (ESOL Teacher), Ms. Payne (Office Assistant). It makes our counseling department a more welcoming environment for the new families who come to register at KJMS from another country.
As we begin to look ahead to the 2022-23 school year, I encourage everyone to Be Wise, Immunize! Immunizations are required for public school entry and help keep children protected from many diseases. Many children missed their well check-ups and their recommended childhood immunizations during recent years of disruptions from COVID-19. It is critical to catch up now to keep children healthy and protect them from serious diseases.
I encourage you to check with your healthcare provider to make sure your child is up to date on required immunizations for the 2022-23 school year as soon as possible. If your child needs a vaccine to complete their records, you can make an appointment with your healthcare provider or visit the Fairfax County Health Department website for a schedule of child immunization clinics.
Remember to request documentation of your child’s immunizations and bring that to KJMS during summer office hours. If you have any questions, please contact our registrar, Andrea Holmes at aholmes@fcps.edu
 
Want to make a difference in the life of a child? Fairfax County Public Schools is looking for enthusiastic, engaged, and dedicated substitute teachers.
Substitutes help our students thrive when their teacher must be out of the classroom and are essential members of every school’s team. More information about the application process and requirements is available online.
