Can you share the phone number? I cannot find it anywhere

All the updated emails went out on 4/9/2024 which AAP notification system has a record of and for reasons unknown, a few of us didn't get them. If you're among those who haven't received it yet, simply give the office a call at 571-423-4740; they're quick to answer. Make sure to have your child's FCPS student ID number ready and inform them that you haven't received the updated AAP email. Politely request the individual who answers to resend the updated email, not through the AAP notification system, but from their official FCPS.edu email. You should receive it shortly.

It's advisable to CC the same individual when you respond with your placement decision to ensure your email doesn't get lost in cyberspace!!

I don’t have it either, nor does my husband. I can’t believe FCPS messed up like this.

What about your child's other parent? In past years sometimes emails have gone to just one parent and that parent had a little-used email on file.

We received the second email. We called the center and asked for an update and got the email moments later. That may be the key to get traction.

Choice #s are going to differ based on whether you have local level IV and center or just center. Our school is a center so we only had 3 choices. 1 was accept level IV placement at our center. 2 was do level III at our school/center. 3 was don't do any advanced services.

But if we had a local level IV and a center I don't know what the numbering is. The email had a blank for a number, so I'd be cautious copying and pasting.

PP, here is the wording:

Please email your school choice noted at the end of this communication to aap@fcps.edu no later than May 6, 2024.

(Choices listed were local, center, no services, part-time services)

We didn't get the updated email but we received orientation emails from both the center and the base schools.

We didn’t get the updated email nor any orientation emails from the schools.
