Heartfelt thanks to our custodial team!

Mr. Helmy, Mr. Kim, Ms. Rivas, and Ms. Reyes- for their incredibly hard work this summer getting Hunters Woods cleaned and ready for the new school year. 

 

Sign Up for SIS ParentVUE

We strongly encourage every parent to open a SIS ParentVUE account. This account is the FCPS secure solution for accessing information about your child's attendance, report cards, class schedules, health, and school information such as bus transportation. 

Need help creating an account? This video walks through the steps. Find out more about SIS ParentVUE.Contact James Racine, jpracine@fcps.edu

 

Bus Information

Through your SIS ParentVue account, you can see your child’s transportation assignments and intent on the “Student Info” tab. Transportation assignments will become available on August 12, 2024, and changes may be made up to August 14, 2024.

 

Parent Digital Consent

Starting August 1, 2024, student consent forms currently on ParentVUE will be moved to the Parent Digital Consent System (PDC).

Families can log in to the PDC using their ParentVUE credentials to complete consent forms assigned to their child. 

Example of forms available in the PDC:

  • School Counseling Opt-Out
  • Digital Resources Consent
  • SEL Screener Opt-Out
  • Family Life Education Opt-Out
  • SOL Retest Permission

As we update the PDC, more district-wide forms will be added.

Apply for Free and Reduced-Priced Meals

The application for free and reduced-priced meals is now available for the 2024-25 school year. Students who were approved for free and reduced-price lunch last year are eligible for the first 30 days of school this year (or until a new application is processed). Families should re-apply as soon as possible, so eligible students continue to receive meals at no cost.
