Gradebook Available Until End-of-Quarter

Based on community feedback from the first quarter closure, FCPS revisited the scheduled dates for closing the Gradebook and Report Card modules in the SIS ParentVUE and StudentVUE apps.

Moving forward, the app will close in alignment with the actual quarter-end dates. This change will allow students and families to view their assignments and grades until the last day of the quarter. Gradebook will be closed for the second quarter from Tuesday, January 28, 4 p.m. to Tuesday, February 4, 6 a.m.

Speech Tournament Judges Needed!

The Justice Speech (formerly Forensics) team has a large number of competitors attending the Occoquan Region competition this year, where we hope to win Regionals for a 6th year in a row!! In order to compete, we need to provide judges! The tournament is on Thursday, January 23rd @ Westfield HS with a 4:00pm check in for judges. We need to bring at least 8 judges in order for our team to compete. All judges receive a $50 stipend check via mail, and food is provided.

No experience is required to judge these speech events – the manual for VHSL Speech events with ballots is available for review on the VHSL website if you would like to prepare beforehand, and you will be prepped on-site before the competition starts on what to look for, how to fill out the judging ballots, etc. You will judge 2-3 rounds of events, and the competition should be completed by 7:30pm or so. Brief training materials will also be provided via email.

Please contact Brian Garvey at bdgarvey@fcps.edu if you are available and willing to be a judge for the tournament!
