Hello, Springfield District,
As I’ve shared in recent updates, improving pedestrian and traffic safety around our schools is one of my highest priorities. From my appointment to the Chairman’s Joint Task Force on Pedestrian and Traffic Safety to our ongoing work surrounding crossing guard coverage and “kiss and ride” improvements, the Board is taking concrete steps to ensure every student travels to and from school safely.
However, real, lasting improvements depend on hearing directly from the families and staff who navigate these routes every single day.
Please take a moment to answer our survey below, prompted by FCPS’ Office of Safety and Security and Safe Routes to School program, to share your experience and current safety issues you have observed. Be sure to be specific in your responses and we look forward to sharing this data with you soon.
Thank you for partnering with us to keep our students, families, and school communities safe!
I will be in touch soon!
Sandy
⏰Safe Routes to School Parent and Caregiver Survey
As part of our annual assessment, the FCPS Office of Safety and Security and the Safe Routes to School team invite parents and caregivers to share their experiences. Your feedback will directly inform local school administrators, safety personnel, and our joint task force as we identify priority areas and work on long-term infrastructure and operational solutions.
What it Covers: Walking and biking routes, traffic congestion near schools, Kiss and Ride experience, physical accessibility, crossing guard needs, and specific safety concerns.
Deadline: Thursday, October 15
Key Details: Please be sure to identify the specific school related to your feedback and highlight exact locations where you have observed hazards or close calls. If you have children at multiple FCPS schools, please complete a separate survey for each school.
Your responses are completely confidential and provide the exact community-level data we need to advocate for safer streets, improved traffic circulation, and enhanced public safety deployments across Fairfax County.
If you have any questions about the survey, feel free to reach out directly to the team at SafeRoutestoSchool@fcps.edu
