Oakton End of Year Calendars
The FCPS School Year Calendars are available below by school year for your planning purposes.
General Information
Update - Principal Process
Our search for the next principal of Oakton High School is progressing smoothly, and the Region Office feels confident that a new permanent principal will be announced before the end of the school year!
In the meantime, we want to let you know about a temporary leadership change for the final few weeks of school. Due to a previously arranged schedule commitment, Mr. Merrell will be stepping away for the remainder of the school year. To ensure consistency and minimize disruption for our students, staff and families, Assistant Principal Ms. Mary Landis will serve as interim principal.
Ms. Landis has been collaborating closely with Mr. Merrell and Ms. Lane to guarantee a smooth transition. We are incredibly grateful for her leadership as we finish the school year strong!

Attendance Reminders
As we approach the final stretch of the school year, we want to take a moment to highlight something that has a powerful impact on student success: consistent school attendance.
More information about Oakton Attendance Reminders is found on the Oakton website under announcements.
We want to ensure that the testing environment is as secure and quiet as possible for all students as they are testing. To support this, we are asking that students remain in their classrooms bell to bell and not leave unless necessary.
Oakton ESOL Spring Celebration
Come to celebrate the success of our MLL students this year! There will be a student panel, and Exhibition of Learning and Ice Cream from 6-7:30 in the Oakton cafeteria. All of our MLL students and families are welcome. We hope to see you there!
Order Your Yearbook through MySchoolBucks
Time is running out to order a yearbook for your student. We have limited copies left. The 300-page book cost $85. To reserve your copy, use this link: 2026 Oakton HS Yearbook.
Sports Health Screening and Pre-Participation Physical (PPE)
If your son or daughter is thinking of playing a sport, he/she will need to have a VHSL pre-participation examination (PPE) completed on the official VHSL physical form. This exam must up to date and on file for your son/daughter to be eligible to participate on any team, including pre-season conditioning. The physical exam must be completed and signed by a physician, a nurse practitioner or a physician’s assistant (MD, NP, PA, or DO).
The Oakton High School Athletic Training Program is offering an opportunity for students to receive a sports health screening and pre-participation physical (PPE) on Monday June 8, 2026, from 5:30-8 pm. Our team physicians and certified athletic trainers will be on hand to provide a thorough screening including a postural exam, flexibility evaluation, and information regarding what each of those assessments mean. If, during the screening or physical the physicians find something that is questionable to them regarding your child’s health, they may request further evaluation by another physician.
To register for a PPE, use this link: Student Registration.
Once you register, we will email a confirmation with a copy of the New PPE Form attached.
We are asking for a donation of $50 for the PPE. Walk-ins are also welcome on that evening, but we ask for a $60 donation at that time.
You can pay for the PPE through my school bucks at this link.
This is the Oakton HS Athletic Training Program’s primary method of fundraising. We get no financial support from the county or any other source for any of our athletic training supplies and consumable goods. The PPEs are being offered in the same format at every high school in FCPS and are fund raising efforts at those schools as well. If you cannot attend the PPEs at Oakton H.S., there may be another local high school offering the opportunity on a date that may be more convenient for you. If you have any questions or concerns, contact Paul Rupp, MS, ATC, at prupp@fcps.edu or Danilo Salgado, LAT, ATC at dsalgado@fcps.edu
Student Services
Tutoring Resources for Families
Some families may be looking for additional resources to help support their child’s academic success. The FCPS Family Resource Center (FRC) maintains a list of FCPS employees who hold a valid Virginia teaching credential and who are available to hire as tutors. This list is a resource offered by the FRC, but families are responsible for contacting and working directly with the tutors. This list is not approved by FCPS and is only meant to be a resource to families.
FCPS also partners with Varsity Tutors to provide students and families with extra resources for learning. Every student can take advantage of Varsity Tutors' services, at no cost, including weekly live online classes, on-demand 24/7 chat tutoring, essay editing, and study resources such as recorded content, practice problems, and diagnostic tests.
