OV PTA Offers School Supply Kit Service - Deadline TODAY

Oak View is so thankful to have such an amazing and supportive PTA.  Each year, the OV PTA partners with a school supply company to help families easily order school supplies. ORDER Deadline is today, Monday, July 15. By ordering supplies through Campus Survival Kits, the company who partners with PTA, the school earns points for each dollar spent and these points go towards mid-year replenishment of community school supplies. Campus Survival points can also be used to provide breakfast and treats for our amazing staff. There is no requirement to purchase these kits and families can access school supply lists on our OV Website.

Good News Around FCPS

Oak View is glad to share the good news happening around FCPS in this section. Each week check back for happenings around FCPS!

Before and after they lift weights, football players at James Madison High School in Fairfax County, Virginia, stop and chat with school custodian Francis Apraku.

Future high school students across the U.S. may find it easier to register to vote, an expansion of access that would be made possible in part by some current students at Marshall High School.
