Return Your 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).

Get2Green: Clean Up Event |
Get2Green is an FCPS environmental stewardship program. Here at Hayfield, we are working to make a positive impact on our environment through recycling initiatives and other efforts. In our first event, we weeded and cleaned up some of our outdoor spaces. During this next event, we’ll focus on trash pick up around the school grounds and begin work on a campaign to promote the idea of zero waste lunches.
Our event will take place on Thursday, November 21, 2024 from 3:30-4:30 p.m. Students in grades 4-6 are invited to participate. Families must be able to pick up their students at 4:30, unless the student is enrolled in SACC.
Please return permission slips to Ms. Taylor or Mr. Pitts by Monday, November 18, 2024 for your 4th-6th grader to participate. A few hard copies were given to each homeroom teacher in grades 4-6 as well for students to bring home. You may email Ms. Taylor or Mr. Pitts with questions.
Is your family looking for resources to help support your child’s academic success? FCPS’ Family Resource Center (FRC) maintains a list of district employees who hold a valid Virginia teaching credential and who are available to be hired as a tutor by parents. FRC maintains this list, but families are responsible for contacting and working directly with tutors. This list is not “approved” by FCPS and is only meant as a resource.
FCPS also partners with Varsity Tutors to provide students and families with extra resources for learning. Every student can take advantage of Varsity Tutors' services at no cost, including weekly live online classes, on demand 24/7 chat tutoring, essay editing, study resources such as recorded content, practice problems, and diagnostic tests.
✨ FCPS’ 2023-30 Strategic Plan Goal 3: Academic Growth and Excellence, reminds us of our commitment to supporting each and every student and helping them meet or exceed high academic standards.

Native American Heritage Month is a time to celebrate rich and diverse cultures, traditions, and histories and to acknowledge the important contributions of Native Americans. It is also a time to raise a general awareness about the unique challenges they have faced both historically and in the present, and the ways in which tribal citizens have worked to conquer these challenges. |
