National School Nurse Day - May 8th
 National School Nurse Day is Wednesday, May 8. It is a day to recognize the many contributions that school nurses make to student health and learning.
FCPS appreciates the role of School Public Health Nurses (PHNs) for their contribution to the health and welfare of all our students. Professional school nurses support the needs of students through their delivery of healthcare, contributions to local school communities, and promotion of safety, prevention, and wellness throughout the year. They are advocates who bridge healthcare and education by supporting student health and readiness to learn. School nurses are essential to our community and work tirelessly to make a positive impact in the lives of their students.
Please join us in thanking the PHNs for their hard work and dedication to FCPS students.

Library Spotlight
 Hello, Students and Families,
The flowers are blooming, and it’s testing season at Robinson. Beginning Monday, April 29 and throughout the month of May, the library will be used for testing. Please see the full schedule below.
For your planning purposes, please note:
** The library is closed when students are testing in the library. Students will not be able to access the library, the printer, or the prayer room during these times. For students seeking a space for prayer, please visit SS10 when the library is closed.
** If our front doors are shut with a “Closed for Testing” sign on the door, students should return another time.
** Please ask your student(s) to plan accordingly for book returns, checkouts, printing, hanging out with friends, etc.
The library will open each day after students complete their SOL tests. Good luck on your exams, students!
