👨💻👩💻Lightspeed Parent Report
As a reminder, FCPS offers a free service that allows parents to stay informed about your child's online activity on any FCPS device? By completing the Lightspeed Parent Report Request, enrolling parents can sign up to receive a weekly report summarizing the websites your child visits while using an FCPS device. These reports are delivered directly to a parent's email address over the weekend by Lightspeed, FCPS's internet content filter. Visit the Lightspeed Parent Report page on the FCPS website for more information and directions on how to sign up.
Each weekly report includes a link to register for the Lightspeed Parent Portal, which provides more detailed browsing information. This portal also gives parents the ability to pause internet access on their child’s FCPS laptop during non-school hours, such as dinner or bedtime.

Another round of community meetings will be held in the fall.
