The Principals' Message 

Hello CES Community,

This week has been a whirlwind of fall fun! We were fortunate to have perfect weather for our Green Hour of Power, and it was truly inspiring to witness our students' enthusiasm as they explored our local environment. Today, we wrapped up the week with a spirited Kindergarten Book Character Parade and another early dismissal.

As we wrap up the first quarter, we wanted to express our sincere gratitude for your continued support and partnership. This year has brought significant changes to our language arts and math curriculum, and we're incredibly proud of the progress our students have made in adapting to these new expectations.

Your dedication to fostering learning at home, coupled with the hard work of our students and teachers, has been instrumental in this success. We look forward to continuing our collaborative efforts. We thank those of you who have already attended parent-teacher conferences and look forward to meeting with the rest of you at your upcoming appointments. 

Wishing you and your family a relaxing and rejuvenating 5-day weekend.

Federal Impact Aid Survey

FCPS is asking all families to fill out a Federal Impact Aid Survey. The form is available online in SIS ParentVUE. If you have not already filled out the form online, we will provide paper forms in November. Please be sure to return them by Friday, November 17

Completing this form for each school-aged child in every household is important, because information from this survey resulted in more than $4 million in funding last year from the U.S. Department of Education. These funds are used to support all Fairfax County public schools and centers.

Please watch this video and visit the Federal Impact Aid Survey page for more information.  

Need to Register for ParentVUE? 

Learn how to activate your SIS ParentVUE account, so you can easily submit your survey. 

Technical support for using ParentVUE or completing the survey online is available by submitting a Parent Support Request ticket. Select SISParent in the Application dropdown menu and type Federal Impact Aid Survey under Issue Description. Or, call the Parent Technology Help Desk at 833-921-3277 (833-921-FCPS).
