Dear Terraset Families,
We have had a tremendous start to November. Our Tigers that participated in the Virginia Science Olympiad this past Saturday represented us well, with some students even earning multiple medals! In Science Olympiad students compete in pairs in events drawn from biology, chemistry, physics, earth science, scientific inquiry, and engineering topics. Huge thanks to sponsors Mrs. Szczesniak, Ms. Wiley, and Ms. Baginda for all of their hard work and big congratulations to:

🗳️ Return Your Federal Impact Aid Survey
FCPS is asking all families to complete a Federal Impact Aid Survey as soon as possible. The form is available in ParentVUE under Online Packets (in the upper right corner after logging in).
Completing this form for each school-aged child in every household is important. 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.
For more information, please watch this video on Impact Aid and visit the Federal Impact Aid Survey page.
Register for ParentVUE
Learn how to activate your SISParentVUE account, so you can easily submit your survey and have access to other helpful information about your child.
