Fairfax County Health Department (FCHD) School Health Services Internal Survey

The Fairfax County Health Department (FCHD) employs school health aides and public health nurses who provide school health services to the students in Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS). To determine the quality of these services, a survey has been developed by the FCHD to be shared with all parents or guardians of FCPS students. Parents/guardians will be asked for feedback on the level of satisfaction with School Health services provided to the school community. The survey will be distributed electronically via FCPS This Week. The survey window is April 15 - April 26, 2024. Survey link: www.redcap.link/FCHDSchoolHealthSurvey.

Survey results will provide a basis for quality improvement of School Health services. The data-driven process is in alignment with the FCPS Strategic planning process, and the survey results will contribute positively to the FCPS Strategic Plan that reflects a shared consensus among stakeholders.

Third Quarter Student Attendance Summary- Coming Soon!

As you know, regular attendance is a priority at Madison High School and is crucial for the academic success of all students. Studies have repeatedly proven that students with better attendance records perform better in school and are more likely to graduate high school on time.  It is critical that students attend school regularly throughout the 4th quarter as teachers are continuing with meaningful instruction and preparation for end of course assessments.

This week we will again be sending out a personalized Attendance Summary to each student and family.  We recognize that there are a variety of reasons that students are absent and this summary will be for informational purposes only.

We appreciate your partnership in prioritizing regular school attendance.  Please reach out to your student’s counselor or visit this FCPS resource on Encouraging School Attendance if you need additional support.

MADWINGS Presentations.  As we approach the end of the school year, all students will be reflecting on their growth and presenting their Wings Portfolio in Advisory class during the last week of school.  A handful of students did not present during the 2022-2023 school year, and we want to ensure they are supported and prepared for the upcoming opportunity to present this spring.  On Tuesday, April 9th, we will be sending passes during block 1 inviting these students to Town Hall to connect one-on-one with an administrator to discuss their Wings progress.  An email will be sent directly to students and parents with more details about the 9th.
