To celebrate Read Across America Week, students are invited to record a short video sharing their favorite book.  Students should give the title, author, a brief summary of the book and why they like it so much.  No spoilers!  We hope many of our students take advantage of this opportunity.  Videos will be shared on the morning news.

Policy 3290 (Sexually Explicit Materials)

Parental Notifications and Policy 3290: Sexually Explicit Content

A Virginia law passed in spring 2022 requires schools to create a policy for parental notification of sexually explicit content/materials. In December 2022, the School Board adopted FCPS Policy 3290: Parental Notification Regarding Instructional Materials with Sexually Explicit Content

FCPS has had policies in place for many years regarding the review of instructional materials, communication with parents, and options for alternative instructional materials.

An expectation of this new policy is the 30-day parental notification requirement of sexually explicit content in instructional materials assigned or selected by teachers. After reviewing the notification letter, parents or caregivers who prefer to choose alternative instructional materials for their child must submit this form to the appropriate teacher within the 30-day notification window. View Policy 3290 for more information.

Notificaciones a los Padres y Política 3290: Contenido Sexualmente Explícito

Una ley de Virginia aprobada en la primavera de 2022 requiere que las escuelas creen una política para la notificación a los padres de contenido/materiales sexualmente explícitos. En Diciembre de 2022, la Junta Escolar adoptó la Política 3290 de FCPS: Notificación a los Padres sobre Materiales de Instrucción con Contenido Sexual Explícito. 

FCPS ha tenido políticas por muchos años con respecto a la revisión de materiales de instrucción, comunicación con los padres, y opciones para materiales de instrucción alternativos

Una expectativa de esta nueva política es el requisito de notificación a los padres de 30 días de contenido sexualmente explícito en los materiales de instrucción asignados o seleccionados por los maestros. Después de revisar la carta de notificación, los padres o cuidadores que prefieran elegir materiales de instrucción alternativos para sus hijos deben presentar este formulario al maestro correspondiente dentro del plazo de notificación de 30 días. Consulte la Política 3290 para obtener más información.
