February 10, 2010

Falls Church City Public Schools will be closed on Thursday,  Feb. 11 (Code Red).

School day care and ASAP also will be closed Thursday, and all evening activities have been canceled.

The school budget work session scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 9 has been postponed until Saturday, Feb. 13.  (The meeting will occur in the Central Office Conference Room, the “Flower Building,” 800 W. Broad Street, Suite 203, Falls Church.  The time has not yet been determined but will be posted at www.fccps.org.)
