Student Testing Results Coming Soon
This month, you will begin receiving your child’s spring assessment results. To see which assessments your child took this year, view this list of tests by grade level.
Depending on the test, scores may be posted in SIS ParentVUE, or sent by mail from the school or testing organization. Learn what to expect regarding assessment reporting practices and timelines.
Visit FCPS’ website for additional information about assessments, including what each assessment is testing for and how to interpret results. Caregivers should contact their children’s schools with any testing questions.
New SOL Growth Reports for Grade 3-8 Tests
Virginia Standards of Learning (SOL) test results — along with other student data — help pinpoint where students may need additional academic support.
The Virginia Department of Education has released new SOL Parent Reports to help families of students who took grade 3-8 SOL math and reading tests this spring interpret the test results they’re receiving.
The Growth Parent Report uses scores from the fall and winter Virginia Growth Assessment and spring SOL to show a student’s academic progress this year.
Learn how to understand your student’s grade 3-8 SOL results and find resources to support their ongoing learning.

Field Day is scheduled for Monday, June 3rd, 2024.
Students in grades K-4 will be assigned a team for Field Day in the coming weeks. They will either be on a red, white, or blue team. Please have your child wear a shirt the color of their group.
