FCPS Snow Day Policy Updated ❄❄⛄
For the current school year, FCPS will be returning to its previous procedure for snow days — there will be no virtual learning days when school is closed due to bad weather.
During snow days, students may still access Tutor.com, Lexia, STMath, and/or complete any supplemental learning opportunities recommended by their teachers. Students may also view educational programming (available virtually and on public access television channels):
Eleven snow days are built into the existing FCPS calendar. Eliminating virtual learning days will allow us to maximize students’ in-person learning and provide equitable access to instruction and student services.
Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow! 🙋🏽♂️
We are headed into Winter Break. Often times the days before a break, we notice more empty seats around the building. This year, let's work together to nurture a rock-solid attendance habit. Every hour of every school day is a unique opportunity for students to learn, connect, and grow.
A big thank you to:
- 🌟 Students who show up every day and the parents/caregivers supporting them.
- 👩🏫 Teachers who create a welcoming environment for learning.
- 👨💼 Administrators providing a safe and engaging place to grow.
- 👋🏽 Bus drivers, support staff, and volunteers lending a helping hand to all our learners.
If you or your child need support, please reach out to our school social worker or family liaison. If your child is not feeling well, please refer to the When Should I Keep My Child Home? webpage for guidance.
There will be no school from Monday, December 18, to Monday, January 1, 2024, for winter break. LTES Offices will be closed during the winter holiday break. Classes will resume on Tuesday, January 2.
Visit FCPS’ website for more attendance resources.

Winter Break Enrichment Opportunity |Gr 3-5
