Greetings Eagle View Families,
What an eventful week we’ve had at Eagle View! Our talented band and chorus students delivered a fantastic performance at their spring concert. A huge thank you goes out to Mrs. Albertson, Mrs. Johnson, and Mr. Walby for their exceptional work in guiding our young musicians.
On Thursday, we were delighted to welcome back Fairfax High School seniors for a special walk down memory lane. Our Kindergarteners made this event even more memorable by escorting the seniors, adding a touch of nostalgia and joy to the day.
In March, our Eagle View students participated in the 2024 ST Math March Mathness and won the challenge! To celebrate, we had a special visit from JiJi, the ST Math mascot. Students who completed their ST Math journey had the honor of walking with JiJi in a parade, which concluded with a fun popsicle party in the cafeteria.
Looking ahead to next week, we have several exciting events lined up. Our field day, which has been moved to Monday, June 3 due to a rainy forecast on Thursday, will kick off the week. We also have our spring strings concert on Wednesday and the much-anticipated spring family picnic to look forward to.
Thank you for your continued support and engagement in our school community.
Sincerely,
KJ An
Principal
We need volunteers for our Family Spring Picnic on Friday, June 7th from 5:30-7:45 PM! Please use this link to sign up to volunteer.
 The Fairfax County School Board voted to adopt Fairfax County Public Schools’ (FCPS) Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 Approved Budget at their last board meeting. The FY 2025 Approved Budget totals $3.7 billion — a net increase of $233.2 million or 6.6% over the previous year.
The FY 2025 Approved Budget focuses on providing educational excellence for all students and ensuring that employees’ hard work and dedication are acknowledged through competitive compensation. Both of these efforts fully align with the FCPS 2023-30 Strategic Plan.
Nearly 86% of the Approved Budget is targeted at instruction. Key budget highlights include funding for a 4% compensation increase for all employees; maintaining existing class size formulas and providing necessary support to all students; and expanding athletics offerings, additional athletic trainers, and enhanced stipends for fine and performing arts.

The school health room is reminding parents and guardians that all medication stored in the health room must be picked up no later than the student dismissal time on the last day of school. Medication left in the health room after that time will be destroyed. It is school policy that medications must be picked up by the parent or guardian. Medication cannot be sent home with your student. However, with parent or guardian permission, a high school student may transport over-the-counter medications to and from the school health room. If your student will be enrolled in a summer program sponsored by Fairfax County Public Schools, the existing medication authorization form(s) may be used for the summer program, but you will need to pick up the medication on the last day of school and deliver the medication and completed forms to the summer learning site on the first day of the summer program. Please let the health room know if you would like a copy of the form(s).
Medication authorization forms for next school year may be obtained from the school or online at https://www.fcps.edu/resources/student-safety-and-wellness/school-health-services. A medication authorization form is required for any medication, prescription or over-the-counter, to be kept at school. Please be sure medication orders are clear. All information on the form must be completed. Part I must be signed and dated by the parent or guardian. Part II must be signed and dated by your health care provider. Approved over-the-counter medications given for headaches, muscle aches, orthodontic pain, or menstrual cramps do not need a health care provider’s signature. Antibiotic or antiviral medications for 10 consecutive school days or less do not require a health care provider’s signature either. For all asthma medications, a Virginia Asthma Action Plan must be provided. More detailed information is available on the back of the medication authorization form(s).
Over-the-counter medication must be in the unopened original container and clearly labeled by the parent or guardian. No more than 100 pills/tablets of OTC medication should be brought to school at a time. All prescription medication, including samples, must be labeled by the pharmacist or health care provider. Please make sure that the label clearly states your student’s name, the name of the medication, the dosage of the medication, and the time to be given.
Your cooperation will ensure that we can safely give your student, their medication. If you have any questions, please contact your school health room aid, Rania Bahafzalla 703-322-3110 or your school public health nurse, Anna Wendland-Budzyn, RN at 703-322-3110.
 The recommended Family Life Education instructional materials are available for community review through Monday, June 10, at 4:30 p.m. View details and a feedback form.

The FCPS CARES Program is an opportunity for parents, staff, and community members to recognize FCPS employees for going above and beyond to help others and show they care. We invite you to submit your story, so we can all acknowledge the good work of FCPS employees, specifically at Eagle View ES. |
We are honored to work with you this year and will work every day to ensure a safe and positive learning environment for your child. We can't do it alone. Please contact us if there is anything we can do to further support your child's learning and experience at Eagle View. We are here to listen and partner with you to help your child have a successful school year!
