Falls Church City Public Schools and the Extended Daycare Program will be closed on Tuesday, January 16th.
We're expecting another 3 inches of snow tonight, and it's going to stay pretty chilly - below freezing for the next day or so. Stay warm and safe out there!

Meridian Gymnasts making Falls Church City proud, from an idea of starting a program to the reality of competing in their first VHSL meet within a year. Thank you to the girls, their families and the coaching staff for working hard and make the season happen. Go Mustangs!

Parents/teachers in VA: the proposed changes to the Social Studies/History standards are highly problematic and we should all be VERY concerned. We need to take action by TOMORROW before the VBOE meets. See this doc for the issues and ways to take action

I need every politician to understand that Charlottesville is not a campaign prop for them to exploit

Daughter: 4th-year UVA student. Distraught. In 20-person American Studies class with Devin Chandler. 3:30 today, in fact. "Dad, he's awesome. He always walks into class smiling and cracking jokes." She's talking in present tense.
What class, you ask? "Non-Violence in America."

Based on a quick read, it looks like Youngkin's team took out:
-Any mention of LGBTQ+ history
-Juneteenth
-"European imperialism"
-"racial conflict"
-Cesar Chavez
In the new version, Ronald Regan is described as one of several "innovators and heroes" alongside MLK Jr.

Hearing @lizzo play some of the Library's priceless antique instruments on Monday was such a gift, and we were honored and happy to help her share that gift with her concert audience Tuesday night. Here is some more behind-the-scenes footage of her Library tour. #LizzoAtLOC

Thank you! Grateful for schools and leadership that believe in supporting all kids. This change would negatively impact ALL students because everyone deserves a community that promotes inclusion, celebrates individuality, and encourages authenticity. These are @FCCPS values.
Parents and @fccps community- time to get involved at the state level. We have MANY students who will be impacted negatively by this change. The data around trans kids, when not accepted for who they are, isn’t good. We accept all students in our schools. washingtonpost.com/education…

Don't forget to leave out milk and cookies for James Madison, because tonight is Constitution Eve!
Isn't that right, @LindaRMonkJD?
