Did You Know...

Nir Eyal from Psychology Today writes, “Summer is an excellent opportunity to teach kids to control their time and attention: the precious skill of becoming indistractable that will transfer to the next school year (and the rest of their lives). Here are tips to craft a summer schedule for your kids.

Summer Chromebook Collection

Summer Programs: Any student completing a summer course, program, independent study, workshop, etc should keep their issued Chromebook and charger. Any student who keeps their Chromebook and charger will be sent an email to confirm that they are responsible for the Chromebook and charger for the summer 2024.

Returns: Students not returning to Langley next year must return a Chromebook and charger. If a Chromebook needs repair, it must be returned with a charger. Collection will take place on June 11, 2024 in classrooms after the 7th period exam. Collection is also available on June 12, 2024, in the lounge area outside of the library.

Summer Office Hours 

Summer office hours will be 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. 

Offices will be closed on the following holidays:

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.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. 

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

It is 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. 

Please work with the tech support team at your school if you have questions.
