Our chronic absenteeism rate went from 7.6% last week to 8.4% this week.
Planning to travel for Thanksgiving? A reminder that students are expected to be in school on November 25 and 26. Travel arrangements should be made that allow students to attend school on these days, as travel is not an excused absence, per FCPS. November 27, 28, 29 are the days school is not in session.
