SOME RELIEF FROM TESTING IN PE!
Hello Fairhill Families
As I am sure you have heard, we are in end of year testing season this week! Our students in grades 3-6 will take the math SOL this week, our students in 1st and 2nd have taken the iReady, and our K students are busy doing 1:1 assessments with their classroom teachers.
We value your partnership with the school and understand that many families will want to know their child’s scores. Our preliminary data is looking incredible! Our students have worked so hard. Below is the timeline for when the information will be released to families. All information is released via ParentVue. If you need help getting the ParentVue app, please contact the main office.
- Kindergarten - VKRP/PALS: Sent via USPS week of 7/8
- Gr. 1-3 - iReady: week of 6/3 in ParentVUE
- Gr. 4-6 iReady: week of 6/24 in ParentVUE
- Gr. 3-6 - SOLs: Week of June 3rd
In partnership,
Ted & Maura

A Note from the Library
Per FCPS regulations, all library book circulation stops two weeks before the end of school. This means that all books are due back to the library by Wednesday, May 29th. Please begin helping your student(s) by reminding them to find and return any books that are currently overdue. Thank you for your assistance in this matter!

🩹 Required Immunizations for Rising 7th and 12th Graders
Immunizations are required for all students entering 7th and 12th grades this fall. Visit FCPS’ immunization webpage to learn about the required vaccines.
Caregivers should ask their private healthcare provider or the health department to review their student's immunization record to ensure that their student has received these required immunizations.
It is important to schedule immunizations early in the summer, as seventh grade students must submit documentation of the Tdap and Meningococcal vaccines before they begin school in August. Twelfth grade students must submit documentation of the Meningococcal vaccine.
Get more information on all student immunization requirements.
