Community
Welcome to FCPS Community Engagement Page!
At Fauquier County Public Schools (FCPS), we firmly believe in the power of community partnerships to enhance the educational experience of our students and strengthen our community as a whole. We embrace the collective efforts of parents, families, businesses, and community members are essential for the holistic development of our young learners.
Our Approach to Community Engagement:
Parent and Family Involvement: We recognize parents and families as invaluable partners in the educational journey of our students. Through parent-teacher associations, workshops, and family engagement events, we actively involve parents in their child's schooling experience, fostering a collaborative relationship between home and school.
Business and School Partnerships: FCPS values the contributions of local businesses and organizations in enriching the educational opportunities available to our students. Through partnerships with businesses, we offer internship programs, career exploration initiatives, and mentorship opportunities that prepare students for success in the workforce.
Community Outreach and Events: We regularly host community events, such as open houses, town hall meetings, and educational forums, to engage with community members and solicit their input on important educational issues. These events serve as platforms for dialogue and collaboration, strengthening ties between FCPS and the broader community.
Volunteer Programs: FCPS welcomes volunteers from the community to support various aspects of school life, including tutoring, mentoring, and extracurricular activities. By volunteering their time and expertise, community members play a crucial role in enhancing the educational experience of our students and fostering a sense of community spirit.
Advisory Committees and Task Forces: We convene advisory committees and task forces composed of parents, community leaders, educators, and students to provide input and guidance on critical issues facing our school district. These collaborative efforts ensure that FCPS remains responsive to the needs and aspirations of our diverse community.
Digital Engagement Platforms: FCPS utilizes digital platforms, such as social media channels, newsletters, and online forums, to facilitate communication and collaboration with community members. These platforms enable us to share information, gather feedback, and promote transparency in our decision-making processes.
Together, we are committed to creating an inclusive and supportive learning environment where every student can thrive and succeed. By working hand in hand with our community members and partners, we can fulfill our shared responsibility to provide high-quality education for all students in Fauquier County.
Join us in building a brighter future for our children and our community!
