Falls Church School Board - February 13, 2024

This Falls Church School Board meeting was marked by a festive atmosphere, as February has been designated as School Board Appreciation Month and the current week as School Board Clerk Appreciation Week. In a heartfelt display of gratitude, each school in the district crafted a video tribute to honor the school board's efforts. Additionally, Clerk Marty Gadell received a special proclamation in recognition of her dedicated service to the board.  The board unanimously approved a proclamation recognizing February as Black History Month and this year's theme of African Americans and the Arts. A highlight of the meeting was the FCCPS Spotlight segment, which showcased the impactful GIVE Day of Service held at the Secondary Campus. On this day, approximately 300 students transformed their day off into a "day on" by assembling protein meal packages for Ukraine and local food banks, demonstrating a remarkable commitment to community service and international aid.
