 We are so excited to be learning together again.
 Parents of English Learners:
Please join us for our school’s newest program, Parents as Educational Partners (PEP). Our first meeting is January 11th from 6 PM-7 PM at Pine Spring.
During the program, parents will…

We hope to see you there. If you have any questions, please reach out to Ms. O’Connor (moconnor@fcps.edu) or Ms. Wallace (mnwallace1@fpcs.edu).

Beginning January 30, FCPS will host a series of community forums as part of our Strategic Plan development process. The schedule and locations for the sessions are posted on FCPS' Strategic Planning webpage. Planning teams, which include a diverse range of voices from the FCPS community, are continuing to review student achievement, access, and survey data;and crafting a collective vision for the school division. Key communicators will soon receive strategic planning materials to share with their groups and networks. Preparations for divisionwide student focus groups are underway, and there will be opportunities for employees to engage in a survey and “reality check” sessions in the upcoming months. For the latest information, please visit the Strategic Planning web page and check it often.
