FY2008 Budget
Full-day kindergarten and the Foreign Language in the Elementary Schools (FLES) program are expanded in the FY 2008 budget approved by the Fairfax County School Board.
The following additional 21 schools will have full-day kindergarten in the fall: Aldrin, Bonnie Brae, Bull Run, Cardinal Forest, Centreville, Clermont, Cub Run, Cunningham Park, Dranesville, Fairfax Villa, Fort Hunt, Island Creek, Keene Mill, Lane, Lees Corner, Little Run, Marshall Road, Olde Creek, Rolling Valley, Stenwood, and Westgate Elementary Schools.

The FY 2008 budget was presented in alignment with the Fairfax County School Board’s new strategic governance initiative, developed as a result of community input, that highlights new student achievement goals to prepare all students for the 21st century workplace. The goals focus on academics, essential life skills, and responsibility to the community.
