Spring is a time when flowers bloom, animals awaken, and the cold, blistering winter becomes a distant memory. What colors, symbols, or images remind you of spring? Tag FCPS AAP with your #CCTatHome ideas!

Loved the Dogwood Kickoff today!  I am so excited and proud to be working with such a great group of reflective, caring and compassionate educators who are constantly working to promote equity and grow as better human beings.  Cheers to promoting PEACE!

My commitment to equity is to listen, learn and seek to understand so that I may help my students feel empowered to achieve their excellence.  DogwoodES FairfaxVA #FCPSCall2Action

Second graders showed off their creativity in our first CCT lesson of the year!

The first week of school is like..."A carnival!" "A birthday party," "A long car ride." Loved hearing all the creative connections in 5th grade for their CCT lesson! @KGarrett_DES

Took a trip around the world with third grade guides! It was so much fun to see these knowledgeable scholars share about the countries they researched!

Thinkabit Tech for Good Camp is off to a great start! Our future engineers learned some basic coding and how to use an Arduino yesterday. Can't wait to see what they accomplish today! @QualcommforGood #ThinkabitLab

Students being risk takers and going above and beyond with their learning. Today in our Thinkabit Camp we had a group of students learn how to code and build the circuits for sensors to add to their projects! @QualcommforGood #ThinkabitLab

Our engineers demonstrated being open-minded and thinkers as they started their builds for their Tech for Good project! @QualcommforGood #ThinkabitLab
