Dear Olde Creek Families,
We wanted to make you aware that Tuesday, March 3, will be a special election day for the Braddock District vacancy on the Fairfax County School Board. Olde Creek is one of 22 schools that will be serving as a polling place on March 3. We are taking extra safety precautions that will allow citizens to exercise their civic duty while minimizing disruptions to the school day.
In coordination with the FCPS Office of Safety and Security and the Fairfax County Office of Elections, we have identified an area of our school that will be open to the public during the school day. This location is removed from students and will be monitored to prevent anyone from entering other areas of the school.
We will need to make some parking spots available for voters, so if you have a meeting at school on March 3, we encourage you to arrive a little early to find parking. Otherwise, we anticipate that disruptions to the school day will be minimal.
We appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we perform this important function for our community. Please feel free to reach out to me directly, if you have any questions or concerns.
Thank you,
Courtney Korb
Principal
Music in Our Schools Month
Does your student love to perform? Do they take music lessons outside of school and want to show off their skills?
March is Music in our Schools Month! This year, we are looking for student musicians to perform some songs in the lobby in the morning as students are coming to school. Each musician will get a day during March to perform a mini concert for their friends! If your student is interested, please fill out this Google Form

Kindergarten Registration
🧸 Kindergarten Registration: It’s as Easy as 1-2-3…
There’s an easy five-step process for parents wanting to register their child for kindergarten:
- Determine eligibility.
- Identify your local school.
- Gather documents.
- Fill out forms.
- Schedule an appointment.
After the appointment at the school (the student and one caregiver must be present), the student will be ready for orientation or any other introductory events each school may host. Read more about the registration process. For more information, call our student information assistant, Mr. Santos at 703-426-3107.
💻 Try Online Registration
Parents may register their children online for kindergarten through 12th grade. Learn how to begin the online registration process. When registering, parents will create (or log in to an existing) SIS ParentVUE account.
New Visitor Management System
We are excited to announce that our school is now using the new Raptor Visitor Management System (VMS). This upgrade is part of our school’s and FCPS’ ongoing commitment to enhancing school safety and streamlining the process for visitors at our school. The VMS ensures that no visitor is on the sex offender registry.
For most visitors, the user experience will be the same when you check-in at the front office.
But now there is also an app, which can make check-in’s even faster at school. Visitors who choose to download the RaptorSafe App and create a Raptor Passport can pre-verify their information before they get to school. The app will give you a QR code you can use when you check-in at school.
If you have questions or need assistance with the new system, please contact our front office. Thank you for your partnership in keeping our schools safe!
