Dear Cardinal Families,
We know how busy your mornings and evenings can be. Between lessons, practices, homework help, and everything in between, trying to find a school menu or a weather update in a crowded email inbox is the last thing you want to do.
We want to make staying connected to our school community as seamless as possible. That’s why we are excited to highlight the FCPS Mobile App. Gone are the days of digging through old emails or hunting for lost bookmarks!
The FCPS app provides a custom experience that is both powerful and easy to use. Here is how it makes life easier for our families:
-
Customized for Your Family: Do you have students at two (or more!) different schools? You can "follow" multiple schools to get a feed of news, notices, and events specific to your family.
-
No Sign-In Required: Access essential content like district-wide announcements, live updates, and school calendars instantly—no password to remember, no login required.
-
Real-Time Notifications: Get push notifications for urgent updates—including weather announcements!—ensuring you never miss an important message from the district or our school.
-
Everything in One Place: From bell schedules and staff directories to athletic event locations and school menus, the app is a central hub for all things FCPS.
To ensure every family stays informed, the app supports automatic translation for more than 100 languages. Learn more about the app, or download it today in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
Warmly,
Allison Hoak, Principal
Jon Kemmerer, Assistant Principal

📕Battle of the Books
Battle of the Books is cancelled for Wednesday, February 4th. Both Mrs. Pereira and Mrs. Christiansen are off campus for professional development. We will discuss two books the following week.
💗We will celebrate Kindness Week from February 9-13!
🧸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.
