Dear Fairview Families,
Thank you to all of the families who joined us for Back to School Night. It was exciting to see so many of you in the building, and we hope you enjoyed the opportunity to meet your child’s teacher and learn more about the year ahead.
We hope you are able to join us for the PTA Movie Night tonight at 6:00 p.m. We wish all of our families a safe, relaxing, and enjoyable three-day weekend!
Warmly,
Samantha Goldstein, Principal

Everything You Need to Do in SIS ParentVUE
Are you working your way through back-to-school forms and checklists? Make sure you have a SIS ParentVUE account for your family and log in to find important forms and updates.
- Be among the first to know about weather closings, bus delays, and other critical communications from your school and FCPS by providing your cell phone number and email in ParentVUE.

Parents can easily opt their child in or out of a variety of resources, including online educational tools, school counseling services, and more.

Vision and Hearing Screening at Fairview
Fairview Families: Vision and hearing screening will be held on September 28th and 30th for all Kinder, 3rd graders, students who are new to FCPS, and those that missed their scheduled screening last year. The purpose of screening is to identify students who need further evaluation due to difficulty seeing the screening chart or hearing the screening tones. If your child wears glasses, please be sure that glasses are at school on screening day.
Parents will be notified by letter if screening results indicate that further evaluation is needed. Prompt follow-up with your health care provider is recommended as vision and hearing difficulties can interfere with learning. If you have any questions, please reach to our Public Health Nurse, Kimber Tritten: katritten@fcps.edu.
