We are excited to participate Earth Week 2023! Earth Week is a fun way to foster conversation and learn about environmental topics that are essential in developing students as environmental stewards and ethical and global citizens.
We are also looking forward to continue to our learning, growing, and serving as environmental stewards beyond Earth Week. Drop by the Family Room at Dranesville Elementary on April 19th between 4:30-5:30 pm to share your ideas and to hear from others in our community. Together, #DranesvilleCARES about each other and the world!
Visit the Get 2 Green website for more information.
Let's Purple Up together and wear purple on Wednesday, April 19th.

Family-Facing Curriculum for Core Content
Available on the Public FCPS Website
The curriculum overviews and unit standards from the planning and pacing guides have been posted on the FCPS public web and shared with the School Board. The goal is to provide families a comprehensive overview of what students are learning and when they are learning it.
An introductory paragraph on each grade level or course page includes the following statements: “The objectives and outcomes for each unit are common across FCPS and based on the Virginia Standards of Learning. The pacing by quarter and by week provides an example of how the curriculum can be organized throughout the year. Teacher teams may adjust the pacing or order of units to best meet the needs of students.”
Information will be updated at the start of each school year to reflect curriculum updates. To access the grade level and/or course web pages directly, first search for the level within the Academics page, select grade level or content, and click on Year at a Glance.
