Transcript and Records Information

Transcripts are the school records that document a student’s attendance over multiple years along with the classes taken and grades earned during each school year.  In Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) the school records move up the grade levels along with the students.
A request for a student's transcript (or other school records) requires a signed release from the parent or legal guardian (if the student is under 18 years of age), or from the student if he or she is 18 years of age or older. 
Where to Make Your Request for Records:
As of August, 2012

• If the student currently attends an FCPS school or last attended an FCPS school in the school years of 2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10, 2010-11, or 2011-12 then submit your request to the LAST school attended. Directory of FCPS schools
• If a student attended an FCPS elementary school and progressed to an FCPS middle school, the remaining elementary records are at the middle school.
• If a student attended an FCPS middle school and progressed to an FCPS high school, the remaining records are at the high school.
• If the student last attended an FCPS school in the 2006-07 school year or an earlier school year, make your request to

How to Request Records:
You may use the form found at http://www.fcps.edu/it/forms/it9.pdf or write your own request.  All requests must include the following information:

• Student's full name (as it was when attending school).
• Student's date of birth.
• Name of the last FCPS school attended.
• Month and year the student last attended an FCPS school.
• Whether the student graduated or withdrew.
• The records being requested (high school transcript, middle school transcript, immunization records…)
• The reason the transcript is being requested (i.e., education, employment, identification, etc.).
• Full address(es) of where to send the copies.
• The signature of either the parent (legal guardian) or the student depending on the student’s age. Proof of identity via government issued photo ID is required.

Submit your request via mail (or in person) to the appropriate location along with payment and proof of identity. The cost for each request is $5.00 for the first six pages copied. Please make checks or money orders payable to FCPS. Credit cards are not accepted. 
You may obtain FCPS elementary, middle, and high school transcripts at the same time with the same request (provided the student attended all three levels at FCPS).  This can save you money and perhaps avoid another trip to obtain records.
