April is the Month of the Military Child! Every year we take the opportunity to recognize military-connected youth for their service and contribution to our community. FCPS is proud to have over 14,000 military-connected youth as a part of our student body. We appreciate the varied life experiences they bring to our school community, and recognize their strength and resilience.
To show our support for all military-connected families, we are inviting all FCPS employees, students, families, and community members to “Purple Up!” on April 19 for military children. Why purple? Purple symbolizes all branches of the military as a combination of Army green, Marine Corps red, and Coast Guard, Navy, Air Force, and Space Force blue.

Pine Spring will celebrate Teacher Appreciation the week of April 24th-28th. One way the PTA would like to thank the teacher is by stocking the staff lounge with various drinks and treats. If you are able to support by donating individually packaged snacks or drinks, please drop them off in the front office any time this week. If ordering from Amazon is more accessible, you can select items from the wish list here and have items sent directly to the school.
In case you missed it in FCPS This Week, the school division shared updates on the following topics:
- No-Cost Mental Health Teletherapy for High School Students
- Proposed Updates to the Student Rights and Responsibilities Document
- Curriculum Overviews on FCPS’ Website
