🥗 Don’t Forget to Check Your Student’s Lunch Balance!
It’s a busy time of year, and we know there are many priorities on your plate. As we approach the end of the school year, it is important for families to remember to check their students’ MySchoolBucks account and pay any remaining school meal balance.
Families who earn less than 185% of poverty level qualify for free and reduced-price meals (FRM). However, an application must be completed and submitted each school year to receive that benefit. The application for the 2023-24 school year will be available near the end of August.
Families who have a current balance and think they may be eligible for free and reduced-price meals are asked to fill out the FRM application for the 2022-23 school year.
If you are interested in helping to relieve lunch debt for families who are currently going through the FRM application process, you may donate to Educate Fairfax.
📈 Academic Matters: State Student Assessment Summary Reports
At the May 25 School Board meeting, Dr. Reid presented information on a new Virginia Department of Education report called Virginia’s Visualization and Analytics Solution (VVAAS) Student Assessment Summary.
Virginia school divisions will be distributing the report to parents showing their student’s past Standards of Learning (SOL) testing data. Reports will be provided via SIS ParentVUE or postal mail for any student who has an SOL testing history in Virginia as of Spring 2022.
In addition to showing a student’s performance on SOL tests over time, it also shows how that performance compares to other Virginia students who took the same test. This report, along with a companion letter, will be available mid-June.
FCPS uses various data sources to determine student growth and success. The VVAAS Student Assessment Summary Report is just one piece of information in the larger picture of student assessment in FCPS. Learn more about assessment reporting practices and timelines.
☎️ Parent Information Phone Line Available in Eight Languages
Parents/caregivers who speak Amharic, Arabic, Chinese, Farsi, Korean, Spanish, Urdu, or Vietnamese may call our Parent Information Phone Lines for general information about the school division. View the list of phone numbers.
School Board Adopts FY 2024 Budget with Focus on Student Achievement
The Fairfax County School Board unanimously voted to adopt the FCPS Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 Approved Budget at their regularly scheduled Board meeting last Thursday. The budget focuses on closing the achievement gap for all students, and maintaining a world-class public school division by recruiting and retaining outstanding educators.
The FY 2024 Approved Budget totals $3.5 billion—a net increase of $221.7 million or 6.7% over the FY 2023 Approved Budget. Nearly 86% of the Approved Budget is targeted at instruction. Budget highlights include:
- $15 million to support the implementation of the Equitable Access to Literacy Plan, with evidence-based language arts basal resources for students.
- $2 million to increase access to Pre-K programs by providing resources to accommodate 10 additional Pre-K classrooms.
- $1.6 million for implementation of the final implementation of recommendations from the advanced academic external review to support students in Advanced Academic Programs.
- $65.2 million and 679.2 positions to address changing student needs, including increased numbers of students requiring English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) Services and special education services, and enrollment growth.
- Increase in student and family supports including additional family liaisons and access to middle school athletic opportunities that support student well-being.
Increased security measures and the continuation of green investments are also acknowledged in the FY 2024 Approved Budget. Read the news release.
