Return to Work Guide
The Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) Return to Work Guide is based on the guidelines provided in the Fairfax Forward Employee Guide and adheres to the phased reopening guidelines outlined by Governor Ralph Northam, in accordance with Forward Virginia Guidance. Information will continue to be updated as we learn more and establish new practices and policies. The following guidelines are applicable to all FCPS facilities, including schools and administrative buildings.

Phased Reopening & Impact on FCPS Operations
Governor Ralph Northam’s guidelines for reopening Virginia is a three-phase plan. On July 1, 2020, the Governor moved Northern Virginia to Phase Three. More information on Phase 3 is available.
For FCPS Employees, Phase 3 means:
In Phase Three, our worksites will be open for employees to work. Telework remains an option for employees with health or other needs that prevent them from working onsite.
All employees will be asked to wear a face covering or mask in FCPS buildings in open areas AND practice social distancing. Employees will also need to complete a daily health screening questionnaire. More details on personal protective equipment (PPE) are available in the FCPS Employee Guide for Return to Work.
Visitors to FCPS will be required to make an appointment. Visitors to FCPS facilities must also wear a face covering or mask. All buildings will be supplied with disposable masks for visitors who do not have one. Protocols to follow to schedule and receive visitors are available in the FCPS Employee Guide for Return to Work.
