Welcome Back from the FCPS School Board
The Fairfax County School Board is responsible for running the public schools in Fairfax County. Twelve School Board members are elected by county voters every four years.
A student representative serves on the board as a non-voting member. They are chosen by their peers each year.
The School Board makes general rules and sets guidelines to ensure Fairfax County Public Schools runs properly. They follow the laws of Virginia and the rules set by the Virginia Board of Education.
Learning about your local School Board is important. Understanding their policies and initiatives can help you advocate for positive changes and ensure that the educational needs of all students are met. There are many ways to get involved.
Please watch these welcome back from the School Board Members Representing Robinson Secondary

September is Attendance Awareness Month
Attend Today, Achieve Tomorrow! The beginning of the school year is the best time to develop strong attendance habits! Students who attend school regularly are more likely to perform well in reading and math, develop strong social and emotional skills, and graduate from high school on time. Help prepare your child for future success. Visit FCPS’ Attendance web page for tips and strategies.
2024-25 Student Rights and Responsibilities
FCPS’ Student Rights and Responsibilities document (SR&R) explains expectations for student behavior and adult responses to enhance school safety and to create a fair, equitable, and supportive school environment. Read Superintendent Dr. Michelle Reid’s letter to families regarding the SR&R.

Family Life Education Instructional Program Info
Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) provides a comprehensive, sequential Family Life Education (FLE) program for students in grades kindergarten through grade twelve. Instruction is seen as a partnership among parents and guardians, the school, and the community in supporting the learning essential to the development of strong families, positive relationships, and a healthy community.
Parents/guardians may choose to opt their child out of all or part of the Family Life Education program. Students who are opted out are provided with age-appropriate, nonpunitive alternative health instruction, and every effort is made to foster respect for family choices. If you wish to opt your child out of all or part of FLE for this school year, opt out forms are available in Parent Digital Consent. Paper opt-out forms are available from your child’s school. Students receiving special education services and accessing modified curriculum will receive a printed opt-out form for modified FLE lessons.
Detailed grade-level program descriptions are available online at Elementary (K-6) , Middle School (7-8) , and High School (9-12). FLE grade level-specific lessons and media that FCPS has streaming rights for are available for parents online in Schoology. Parents/guardians login to Schoology using the same username and password as their Student Information System (SIS) Parent account. Grade level-specific lessons are also available at the City of Fairfax Regional Library (this location does not have media). Grade level-specific lessons and media that is not streamed online are available for review at your child’s school library. Due to copyright permissions, we are unable to stream all media online.
Program questions may be addressed at your child’s school or by contacting Instructional Services at 571-423-4550 or by email to fle@fcps.edu.

PE Uniform Information and Ordering
The expectation for the 2024-2025 school year is that Physical Education and Personal Fitness students will use their assigned locker room to change into safe, comfortable clothing for the class period; we prefer and recommend Robinson athletic wear. Students' participation in class activities can be limited due to improper clothing. Due to physical education and personal fitness grades being dependent on the ability to participate, students’ daily assessments in the assigned unit could be affected. The HPE department has set up a site where you can purchase Robinson Athletic wear to be ready for class activity. Students will be given the opportunity to lock their belongings within the locker room for their class period. Student’s belongings, including backpacks, laptops, and phones will be left in the locker room unless directed by the teacher. Students must have a master lock to lock items. This can be brought from home or purchased through the 2024-2025 PE site. The window to purchase uniforms is currently open and will close on Friday, September 27, 2024. Robinson Physical Education teachers will distribute the purchased uniforms to students.
PE Uniform Link
Students are not permitted to have cell phones or headphones at any time in PE. Cell phone usage during class can hinder learning, disrupt the learning environment, and negatively impact their engagement.
Please contact Jill Cross, JPCross@fcps.edu, HPE Department Chair, with any questions.
