Student Safety and Dismissal
Dear Parents and Guardians,
In our ongoing efforts to ensure the safety of all students during arrival and dismissal, we ask for your cooperation. Please encourage your child to use the crosswalks staffed by a crossing guard to cross safely.
For dismissal:
-
Walkers will exit through Door 12.
-
Kiss and Ride students will depart from Door 11.
We kindly ask parents picking up students by car to follow the Kiss and Ride line to ensure an orderly and efficient dismissal process. Our FCPS Security team will be present to assist with monitoring and ensuring the smooth flow of students.
Thank you for your understanding and support in keeping our students safe.

Advanced Academic Programs (AAP)
Screening for Subject Specific and Part-Time Services
Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) is committed to challenging all students through talent development and differentiated instruction to meet the needs of advanced learners.
Screening for Subject Specific and Part-Time Services
Students can be screened for subject specific and part time AAP services at any time in the school year. In the spring, schools review data on all students to determine services for the start of the next school year. Silverbrook will screen all students for subject specific and part-time services this spring.
Screening Process for Subject Specific and Part-Time Services
Multiple criteria are reviewed holistically to determine eligibility for all FCPS advanced academic services. Committees consider student work from opportunities with AAP lessons, examples of student reasoning or gifted behaviors from class discussions and activities, progress reports, achievement and ability scores, and parent or guardian input. Committees consider whether students have access to a group of students with similar academic needs to support academic conversations and growth in the classroom.
