STUDENT-PARENT SURVEY FOR FEDERAL IMPACT AID DUE NOV 17

The federal presence in our area and the significant tax exemptions available to federally connected personnel, businesses, and agencies has qualified Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) to be eligible for federal Impact Aid grants. The Federal Impact Aid survey results in an additional $3 million in grants each year from the U.S Department of Education.  These funds are used to support all Fairfax County public schools and centers. The more federally-connected students a school has, the more that school earns in grant dollars. 

THIS YEAR, Parents can complete this survey by logging into your SIS ParentVUE account. **PREFERRED METHOD** The online version is available now UNTIL OCT 27. 

For assistance completing the survey via ParentVUE:  https://www.fcps.edu/node/49068

OR:     If you require a hard copy, one will come home NOV 2nd in THURSDAY TAKE HOME FOLDERS. If you prefer, you may fill it out and send it back with your student. 

Please complete, sign, date and return the survey to school BY NOVEMBER 17th.  If sections 1-3 do not apply to you, just check the box in Section 4.  All forms must be returned, regardless of your federal connection.  All results are confidential.
