Thank you

Thank You to all of our Military-Connected Youth Family Advisory Council participants!

We’d like to thank all of our military-connected family members who participated in the Military-Connected Youth Family Advisory Council this school year! This program provides a space for military-connected family members from across the division to provide critical feedback on their experiences within FCPS. The Advisory Council meets quarterly with Superintendent Dr. Michelle Reid, and serves as a unique opportunity for military families to share insights and concerns directly with school leadership.

We look forward to continuing the Military-Connected Youth Family Advisory Council next year! As a military family member, please fill out this form if you are interested in participating during the 2026-2027 school year.
