  Our students and families had a great time at our first Pumpkin Painting Knight fundraiser. We raised $636! The money from this fundraiser will go towards educational assemblies and programs for our students.
 Our 6th grade students rocked their new 6th grade shirts while attending their first field trip of the school year to Camp Highroad in Middleburg, VA.
 Mrs. Flood's class put their UFLI lending boards to great use!
 Newington Forest Elementary received a certificate of appreciation for recognizing our military families. Thank you to all of our staff and families for making that week a success.
IMPACT AID SURVEY IS DUE ELECTRONICALLY BY TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31
 The Impact Aid Program is a federal program designed to directly compensate local school districts that have been financially impacted by federal activities. The program’s mission is to reimburse local school districts for local revenues lost due to the presence of federally owned, and therefore tax exempt, property.
This year, FCPS is pleased to announce that the Federal Impact Aid Survey will be available electronically through a ParentVUE account until October 31st.
Step 1: Log in to SIS ParentVue (not thru the mobile app)
Step 2: Select the Online Packets tab.
Step 3: In the dropdown menu, select the 2023-2024 Federal Impact Aid Survey
Step 4: Click the Begin Registration button.
Please complete an Impact Aid Survey for EACH student in FCPS.
For questions regarding the Student-Parent Survey for Federal Impact Aid, please call 703-329-7750 or email ImpactAid@fcps.edu.
