Senior Chromebook Collection:

Our school technology team will be collecting Chromebooks and chargers from seniors on May 28th, 2024. Details are outlined below. 

Important: Failure to return both the Chromebook and charger will result in a financial obligation that must be resolved to receive a cap and gown. 

  • Laptop (Chromebook): $433.00
  • Charger: $23.00

May 28th, 2024: Collection during all lunch periods in the lounge area outside the Library/Tech Office (Rm. 2213).

We strongly encourage all seniors to return their Chromebooks and chargers on these designated dates to avoid delays in receiving your cap and gown.


End of the School Year Medication Pick-up

As the end of our school year approaches, I would like to remind you that all medications kept in the Health Room must be picked up by the end of the school year.  Per FCPS regulations, any medications that remain in the Health Room after close of business on the last day of school must be destroyed.

For SENIORS:  The last day of classes will be May 24th.  Seniors who have medications may keep them in the Health Room until after AP testing and graduation activities are complete.

For ALL OTHER STUDENTS:  The last day of classes is June 12th.

Prescription Medications (Epi-pens, Inhalers, ADHD, etc.):  Must be picked up by a parent.  Please sign in at the main office.  PLEASE NOTE:  if a student self-carries their epi-pen or inhaler and keeps one in the health room, the student may pick it up.

Over-the-counter Medication:  Students may pick up these medications and take them home.  They may be picked up at the end of the day between 2:45-3:00pm any time before the end of the year.

All medications must be picked up by 11:00 am, June 12th. 

Epi-Pen Donation 

Consider donating your student's unused epi to families in need. If you agree, all you need to do is to sign a form. Please contact the email below if you want to donate.

Please contact School Health Aide, Andrea Cabral, with any questions. aleaosantosv@fcps.edu
