FCPS CARES Program

FCPS Cares

 

 

The FCPS CARES Program is an opportunity for parents, staff, and community members to recognize FCPS employees for going above and beyond to help others and show they care. We invite you to submit your story, so we can all acknowledge the good work of FCPS employees, specifically at North Springfield ES.


Arrival and Dismissal

A safety reminder for Kiss-n-Ride

Do Not Park - Stay in the line, students should absolutely not be crossing the parking lot during dismissal.  We have had a couple accidents and close calls because people are parking, this distrupts the entire process.

A reminder that Virginia Law requires that all children age 7 years and younger to be properly secured in a child safety seat or booster seat. There is no height or weight requirement and they should not be in the front seat of the car.


Andrew Gause's Martial Arts

Transported After School Program - Our After School Program (AMP) is the perfect alternative to SACC/Daycare.  Your child will get a daily Taekwondo class, snack and quiet/homework time.  So a child should have gotten a good workout and their homework done when you pick up so you can enjoy the rest of your evening together.
