Calling All Career Day Volunteers!
Our annual Career Day is coming up on March 4, and we need your help to make it an inspiring experience for our students! Career Day gives our elementary students the opportunity to explore a wide variety of careers, ask questions, and begin imagining the many possibilities for their future.
If you or someone you know would like to share about their career, please consider volunteering and sharing the Career Day flyer with friends, family members, or community connections. We currently have 6 presenters signed up, and our goal is to reach at least 21 presenters so students can learn about many different career paths.
Students are curious about all kinds of careers. Some examples of careers students enjoy learning about include (but are not limited to):
- Doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals
- Teachers, principals, and school staff
- Police officers, firefighters, and EMTs
- Engineers and architects
- Scientists and environmental workers
- Artists, musicians, and performers
- Chefs and bakers
- Military service members (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard)
- Veterinarians and animal care workers
- Athletes and coaches
- Technology and computer-related careers
- Entrepreneurs and business owners
- Construction workers and skilled trades
Thank you for helping us show our students the many paths their futures can take! If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Gibbs or Ms. Thompson.

It’s Kindergarten Registration Time!
Kindergarten helps children learn and practice the social, emotional, problem-solving, and self-regulation skills they will use throughout their lives.
Fairfax County public schools typically conduct kindergarten registration events, including orientation, in the spring. Eligible children can be registered throughout the summer, but registering your child early helps schools prepare and ensure they have the teachers and resources needed on the first day of school.
If your child will attend our school, please gather necessary documents and complete registration forms as soon as possible.
FCPS offers support and resources for all families to help with registration and the transition to kindergarten. For support in other languages, please visit the FCPS Registration webpage.
Don't delay contact our Registrar, Sandra Guzman, at 703-799-2001, or by e-mail at sguzman@fcps.edu to initiate enrollment.

Student Fasting Meal Kits
From February 18 to March 19, 2026, a Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) waiver allows students fasting during the school day to request take-home meal kits. These kits include a complete school breakfast and lunch to be eaten after the school day ends.
Important Meal Kit Information:
- Kits are charged based on a student’s meal status (Free, Reduced, or Paid).
- Students may claim one breakfast and one lunch kit per day.

- Kits are distributed at the end of the school day. Students must pick up their own kits; adults are not permitted to collect them.
Parents or guardians must submit a weekly request form via the FCPS FNS website by the deadlines:
