If you currently use an anti-spam program or service and would like to be sure that you receive your Keep in Touch messages, please add Keep in Touch to your "safe" or permitted email sender list. This usually involves simply adding our sending address (From:) to your whitelist, safelist, or list of privileged senders. This is commonly known as whitelisting.
FCPS district messages: whitelist FCPSkit@fcps.edu
KIT messages from FCPS schools: whitelist {Schoolname}{school type: ES, MS, HS}.KeepInTouch@fcps.edu
Examples:
Aldrin Elementary School : whitelist AldrinES.KeepInTouch@fcps.edu
Carson Middle School: whitelist CarsonMS.KeepInTouch@fcps.edu
Falls Church High School: whitelist FallsChurchHS.KeepInTouch@fcps.edu
If you have any questions relating to whitelisting a specific school, please contact the school directly or email Cindy Rivera.
Please refer to the following whitelisting instructions you can use to whitelist Keep in Touch, depending on the filtering solution you use:

Select the screen name we're sending your Keep in Touch to.
Click Customize Mail Controls For This Screen Name.
Open your latest Keep in Touch e-mail.
Click the Add Address button (on the right) to add to your "People I Know" list.
Alternatively, you can just send an e-mail to: FCPSkit@fcps.edu,
and that will add us to your "People I Know" list automatically. To do this:
Open your latest Keep in Touch e-mail.
Click the Reply button (it's in the top right corner).
A new email window opens with the wrong address in the "Send To" box.
Replace the address in the Send To box with: FCPSkit@fcps.edu
Click Send Now (in the top right corner).
Even if the e-mail you send doesn't get through to us, the act of sending
it does the job of putting us into your "People I Know" list.
If Keep in Touch is filtered, from the spambox,
click on the white "W" icon on the left column of the mailing.
When the pop-up window comes up, simply click the Add to Whitelist button.
