LGBTQIA+ Pride Month.
In the month of June, we recognize the resilience and determination of the many individuals who are fighting to live freely and authentically. We stand with those facing an ongoing struggle against discrimination and injustice. This Pride Month, we reaffirm and uphold the dignity of LGBTQIA+ people. Each individual in our school community should feel valued for who they are. Visit our LGBTQIA+ Student Resources and Supports webpage. Learn more about the heritage months, celebrations, and traditions celebrated in FCPS.
Caribbean American Heritage Month

Learn more about Caribbean American Heritage Month.
Sports Health Screening and Pre-Participation Physical (PPE)
If your son or daughter is thinking of playing a sport, he/she will need to have a VHSL pre-participation examination (PPE) completed on the official VHSL physical form. This exam must up to date and on file for your son/daughter to be eligible to participate on any team, including pre-season conditioning. The physical exam must be completed and signed by a physician, a nurse practitioner or a physician’s assistant (MD, NP, PA, or DO).
The Oakton High School Athletic Training Program is offering an opportunity for students to receive a sports health screening and pre-participation physical (PPE) on Monday June 8, 2026, from 5:30-8 pm. Our team physicians and certified athletic trainers will be on hand to provide a thorough screening including a postural exam, flexibility evaluation, and information regarding what each of those assessments mean. If, during the screening or physical the physicians find something that is questionable to them regarding your child’s health, they may request further evaluation by another physician.
To register for a PPE, use this link: Student Registration.
Once you register, we will email a confirmation with a copy of the New PPE Form attached.
We are asking for a donation of $50 for the PPE. Walk-ins are also welcome on that evening, but we ask for a $60 donation at that time.
You can pay for the PPE through my school bucks at this link.
This is the Oakton HS Athletic Training Program’s primary method of fundraising. We get no financial support from the county or any other source for any of our athletic training supplies and consumable goods. The PPEs are being offered in the same format at every high school in FCPS and are fund raising efforts at those schools as well. If you cannot attend the PPEs at Oakton H.S., there may be another local high school offering the opportunity on a date that may be more convenient for you. If you have any questions or concerns, contact Paul Rupp, MS, ATC, at prupp@fcps.edu or Danilo Salgado, LAT, ATC at dsalgado@fcps.edu
