February 22, 2026
Due to expected winter weather, all FCPS schools and buildings will close at 6 p.m. on Sunday, February 22, 2026. This means all activities must be completed by 6 p.m.
In addition, all FCPS schools and central offices will open two hours late Monday, February 23, 2026. This means all schools will begin two hours after their regularly scheduled start times.
Because of the uncertainty of the forecast, FCPS will monitor the weather and reevaluate as the evening progresses and into early tomorrow morning. If we need to adjust to a closure, we will notify our staff and community as soon as possible.
Central and school office 12-month employees must report to work in person no later than 10 a.m. Telework-eligible employees may telework or take unscheduled leave. Please check in with your supervisor to report your status. Central offices will open to the public at 10 a.m.
The following activities in schools and on school grounds are canceled or delayed:
- Morning preschool and special education classes are canceled.
- Full-day preschool, special education, and Early Head Start/PreK classes start two hours later than the regular schedule.
- Morning field trips are canceled.
- Morning transportation for high school academy classes is canceled. Transportation will be provided for academy classes that start after 12:45 p.m.
- Adult High School and GED courses will start two hours later than the regular schedule.
- Homebound instruction will begin at 10 a.m.
School Age Child Care (SACC) and Beyond the Bell (BTB) centers will open at 8 a.m. Afternoon preschool classes will start on their regular schedule and Adult and Community Education (ACE) classes will start on time.
Additional updates will be available on the FCPS website and the FCPS mobile app.
Sincerely,
