A Message from Principal Goldstein 


Sam Goldstein

Dear Fairview Families,

As we approach the end of May, we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible hard work and focus our students have displayed over the last few weeks as they’ve navigated the testing season.

We are so proud of their perseverance, and we also want to thank you—our parents and guardians—for your support behind the scenes in keeping them rested, fed, and encouraged.

We also hope everyone enjoys a safe and restful Memorial Day weekend. Whether you are traveling, hosting, or simply relaxing at home, we hope you find time to recharge and spend time with loved ones.

Reminder: There will be no school May 25-May 27. Classes will resume on Thursday, May 28, 2026. We look forward to seeing our students back and ready for the final stretch of the school year.

Wishing you all a wonderful long weekend!

Samantha Goldstein

Principal

Please Check Your Student’s Lunch Balance

It’s a busy time of year, and we know many priorities are on your plate. As we approach the end of the school year, it is important to check your student’s MySchoolBucks account and pay any remaining school meal balance.

Free and Reduced-Price Meals

Families who earn less than 185% of the poverty level qualify for free and reduced-price meals (FRM). However, an application must be completed and submitted each school year to receive that benefit. The application for the 2026-27 school year will be available this summer. 

If you have a current balance and think you may be eligible for free and reduced-price meals, please fill out the FRM application for the 2025-26 school year.

Your Child's Mental Wellness Matters: Access Comprehensive Services

Reach out to the Fairfax-Falls Church Community Services Board (CSB) for specialized youth mental health services designed to help your child succeed. The CSB has individual and family counseling, psychiatric diagnostic evaluations, medication management, parenting groups, peer support, crisis response, recovery supports that include medication-assisted treatment (MAT), intensive services, and other services. 

Contact CSB Entry and Referral to get started by calling 703-383-8500 or emailing csb@fairfaxcounty.gov

Additional Mental Health Resources

FCPS has resources available to support your child’s mental health. During after-school hours, parents and students who need additional support can use the 988 Lifeline to get free, confidential guidance from trained crisis counselors on how to best help someone experiencing a mental health challenge or crisis. You can call or text the number. 

Recent reports have shared an 11% drop in suicides among young people since the rollout of 988. Please note, the hotline is not only for those experiencing suicidal ideation (or thoughts), it is also available for any mental health or substance abuse-related crisis and those with a loved one experiencing those crises or suicidal thoughts. 

And as always, if your concern is an emergency, you should call 911.

Third Annual FCPS Puzzle Hunt Encourages Active Family Fun

This free event is open to solvers of all ages and is a great way to keep students and families engaged in fun, creative problem-solving over the summer. It also teaches bike and pedestrian safety and encourages active transportation.
