Student Voice

A platform for student expression

In your own voice and choice of media, tell us your unique and compelling thoughts. Selected stories will appear on the FCPS Student Voice webpage and possibly other digital or broadcast platforms.

 

COVID-19 Vaccines - Deadline June 1

COVID-19 vaccines will soon be available for people ages 12 and up. Tell us why you got vaccinated, or why you WANT to be vaccinated. Why is it important to you and your family? What would you say to encourage other students to get the COVID-19 vaccine? Create a social media post and add the hashtag #FCPSAskMeWhy and #FCPSStudentVoice.

 

Student Mental Health and Wellness - Open Deadline

How will you unplug from the digital world after virtual classes? What ways have you found to get moving and stay focused without being in a classroom? How are you staying connected with your friends when you don't see them in school every day?
