Please select five characteristics you would like to see in your child’s teacher. Keep in mind that placement decisions are made with your child's individual strengths in mind. We strive to create classes that are as balanced as possible considering what we know about the students we serve. Use this link to access the google form to record your responses.

National School Nurse Day

National School Nurse Day is Wednesday, May 7. It is a day to recognize the many contributions that school nurses make to student health and learning.  

FCPS appreciates the role of School Public Health Nurses (PHNs) for their contribution to the health and welfare of all our students. Professional school nurses support the needs of students through their delivery of healthcare, contributions to local school communities, and promotion of safety, prevention, and wellness throughout the year. They are advocates who bridge healthcare and education by supporting student health and readiness to learn. School nurses are essential to our community and work tirelessly to make a positive impact in the lives of their students.  

Please join us in thanking the PHNs for their hard work and dedication to FCPS students.
