Senior Sunset

A note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Families,

It has been a week full of celebrations at Chantilly HS. I feel very grateful to serve in this amazing Charger community and share in the joys of student academic achievement, performance, and competition.  Our Chargers shined this week in musical performances by our Orchestra, Band and Choir groups including student arranged, conducted, and performed pieces. We celebrated our class of 2024 academic and scholarship awards at Senior Convocation and had a lot of fun connecting with a large number of our seniors at our Senior Sunset BBQ (pictured above). Our girls soccer team represented Chantilly in the Northern Region semi-finals and Boys Track and Field were crowned Northern Region Champions this week!

We are extremely proud of how our students Lead the CHARGE through their actions. There is so much to celebrate at CHS, most notably the care, collaboration, and commitment to our community demonstrated by our students, staff, and families each and every day. I am inspired by the work of our Engineering and OT/PT students in support of a rising Charger. Read more below:

EOY Principal's Coffee - May 31, 7:30-8:30 AM

I hope you will join me for an informal time to connect and share feedback on Friday, May 31 at 7:30 AM in our College and Career Center. Our coffees are a time to talk and get to know one another and other Charger families.  I look forward to sharing school updates, and seeking your feedback to help guide the 24-25 SY and beyond. 

We Believe...

As we look ahead to Chantilly - Beyond 50 Years, we are looking for input on the key beliefs of all our stakeholders to guide our vision for the future and to develop our collective commitments.  Please take a moment to share your essential beliefs about our learning community and what we want to become here.

As always, I welcome your feedback, questions, and suggestions. I look forward to connecting with you at Chantilly very soon.

Amy Goodloe, Ed.D.

Leaving FCPS? Backup Google Drive!

If you are preparing to graduate or leave FCPS for any reason, it’s important to know that your Google Workspace account will be automatically deactivated once you are no longer actively enrolled in FCPS. This process happens during the summer, shortly after the end of the school year.  Once your account is deactivated, you will no longer be able to login to your FCPS Google Drive or access your FCPS Gmail. 

If you will no longer be an FCPS student after this school year, download or export any files you wish to keep before June 12th, 2024. The download process of files can take several days, so please make sure to give yourself plenty of time.

This year students have the option to use Google Takeout to export their files. Visit Google’s directions here: How to download your Google data using Takeout. It’s important to know that you will only be able to export files for which you are the owner. 

If you’d prefer to manually select files from your Drive to download, follow the Downloading Your Data instructions on the Google Workspace Information for Students and Parents page of the FCPS website

🥗 Don’t Forget to Check Your Student’s Lunch Balance! 

It’s a busy time of year, and we know there are many priorities on families’ plates. As we approach the end of the school year, it is important to remember to check your students’ MySchoolBucks account and pay any remaining school meal balance. 

Families that earn less than 185% of poverty level qualify for free and reduced-price meals. However, an application must be completed and submitted each school year to receive that benefit. The application for the 2024-25 school year will be available this summer. 

If families have a current balance and think they may be eligible for free and reduced-price meals, please fill out the FRM application for the 2022-23 school year. Get more information about free and reduced-price lunch.
