INTERNATIONAL NIGHT AND PERSONAL PROJECT SHOWCASE INFORMATION
We have received several questions in regards to our International Night and MYP Personal Project Showcase events this evening. In Dr. Noonan’s message yesterday he indicated to the community, and to the School Board at last night's meeting, FCCPS will continue to follow the guidance of the Fairfax County Health Department (FCHD) who is working in close coordination with the CDC. At this time the FCHD are not suggesting that we cancel events. Consequently, tonight’s event will go on as planned until and unless we get new guidance between now and then.
While I recognize that there are many beliefs about containment and mitigation strategies with respect to COVID-19, we must listen to our health district partners and show fidelity to a process.
Lastly, tonight’s event is a parent’s choice. If parents wish to keep their student(s) home they may and FCCPS will respect and support that decision.
Thank you for understanding our position at this time and know that we are in constant communication with the FCHD.
Sincerely,
Matt Hills
Principal
