Please bring non-perishable food items to school to donate to families in need in our community from November 6th - 25th. All donations will help support the Koinonia Foundation in Alexandria, Virginia. Please drop off items in the box in the front lobby. 

For more information, contact Mrs. Green at megreen@fcps.edu.


Assistance Needs & Opportunities

During the year, some of our families find they need assistance with food, clothing, or other items. There are several community services available to provide help. If your family needs support please return this form. Our school counselor, Mrs. Green, will contact you with information about getting assistance. Additionally, many families have already reached out to express an interest in supporting families in our Clermont community. If you are looking for ways to help please read and submit this form to see how you can show you CARE by supporting families in our community.

Please email Mrs. Green if you have questions or concerns.


Important: Submit Your Federal Impact Aid Survey

Return Your Federal Impact Aid Survey

FCPS is asking all families to fill out a Federal Impact Aid Survey. The form is available in SIS ParentVUE under Online Packets (in the upper right corner after logging in). Please complete it as soon as possible.

For any families who have not completed the survey in ParentVUE, we will provide paper forms starting Wednesday, November 13. Paper forms should be returned by Wednesday, December 4.

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.
