FCPS is proposing to open a new Full-Time Advanced Academic Program Center at Poe Middle School in the Annandale Pyramid. If approved by the School Board, the proposal will allow students whose base middle school is either Poe or Holmes Middle School to remain in the Annandale Pyramid for Full-Time AAP.
The second meeting will be held for interested families to learn more about the proposal, understand potential impacts, and provide feedback. It will be Tuesday, October 28, 2025, at 6:30 p.m.at Poe Middle School in the Library.
Registration is available but not required, and it will greatly assist us with planning. To help us better accommodate individual needs, please RSVP using this form and indicate if you plan to attend in-person or virtually and whether you require interpretation services.
Not sure which middle school your student is assigned to? Please use the FCPS Boundary Locator to find out.
