Slide decks and summaries from recent Community Conversations are made available after the end of the meeting. Please note that summaries are automatically generated via Zoom's artificial intelligence summary generator and may contain misspellings or contradictory information. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to Ms. Dushok or Principal Hill for clarification. View the slides and read the summaries from previous meetings.

FCPS Cares

FCPS Cares is an opportunity for parents, staff, and community members to recognize FCPS employees for going above and beyond to help others and show they care. We invite you to submit your story so we can all acknowledge the good work of FCPS employees.

Parent Volunteers 

Volunteers are essential to the success of Fairfax County Public Schools. Many enriching and worthwhile experiences are afforded to our children through the volunteer help from parents. Every day, volunteers change the lives of students across FCPS and we offer several ways for people in the community to get involved.

We love having parent volunteers at Westlawn! If you are interested in volunteering in our school, please contact your child's teacher to learn about opportunities.

Business and Community Partnerships

The Business and Community Partnerships office’s primary functions are to recruit and supports Ignite Partnerships, serve as a liaison to local Chambers of Commerce and other community organizations, help lead the annual Collect for Kids school supply drive, manage the FCPS Donations Portal for donated goods, and promote the Savings for Staff merchant discount program.

In the last decade, the Business & Community Partnerships team has helped secure over ten million dollars in donations of money and valued goods through partnerships and direct donations, not including the value of volunteer hours contributed by partners and mentors.
