Online Campus Summer Registration Closing Soon!

Registration for summer classes with FCPS' Online Campus will close on Friday, June 7. Online campus courses are for students in grades 7-12. Email [email protected] or call 703-503-7781 with any questions.

Registration is also still available for the Institute for the Arts (IFTA) and Elementary-IFTA (E-IFTA) arts camps, and Credit Recovery Academy.

Leaving FCPS? Backup Google Drive!

If you are preparing to graduate or leave FCPS for any reason, it’s important to know that your Google Workspace account will be automatically deactivated once you are no longer actively enrolled in FCPS. This process happens during the summer, shortly after the end of the school year.  Once your account is deactivated, you will no longer be able to login to your FCPS Google Drive or access your FCPS Gmail. 

If you will no longer be an FCPS student after this school year, download or export any files you wish to keep before June 12th, 2024. The download process of files can take several days, so please make sure to give yourself plenty of time.

This year students have the option to use Google Takeout to export their files. Visit Google’s directions here: How to download your Google data using Takeout. It’s important to know that you will only be able to export files for which you are the owner. 

If you’d prefer to manually select files from your Drive to download, follow the Downloading Your Data instructions on the Google Workspace Information for Students and Parents page of the FCPS website

🥗 Don’t Forget to Check Your Student’s Lunch Balance! 

It’s a busy time of year, and we know there are many priorities on families’ plates. As we approach the end of the school year, it is important to remember to check your students’ MySchoolBucks account and pay any remaining school meal balance. 

Families that earn less than 185% of poverty level qualify for free and reduced-price meals. However, an application must be completed and submitted each school year to receive that benefit. The application for the 2024-25 school year will be available this summer. 

If families have a current balance and think they may be eligible for free and reduced-price meals, please fill out the FRM application for the 2022-23 school year. Get more information about free and reduced-price lunch.

Welcome Brendan Shapiro New Director of Student Activities

Dear Chantilly Community,

We are excited to announce that Mr. Brendan Shapiro has been named the new Director of Student Activities for Chantilly High School effective August 1, 2024.

A proud graduate of FCPS (Langley High School, ’94), Mr. Shapiro has worked for nine years in Fairfax County Public Schools as a teacher, coach, sponsor, and Assistant Director of Student Activities (ADSA). Brendan most recently served as the ADSA at Fairfax HS where he oversaw clubs, graduation, athlete eligibility, and directed multiple tournaments including district and region championships, while also supervising the Student Government Association and teaching leadership courses. A career switcher who founded Potomac River Running and PR Training programs, and taught Health at PE at Chantilly feeder, Franklin Middle School, Mr. Shapiro is well suited to join the Charger community as the DSA.

Mr. Shapiro highly values strong relationships and collaboration with all stakeholders to create a shared vision for student activities. His leadership is founded in the belief that activities provide every student a place to have fun, grow, and most importantly, belong in a school community. Mr. Shapiro is enthusiastic about joining the Charger community and connecting with our students, families, staff, and coaches. We look forward to welcoming Brendan Shapiro to the Chantilly team this summer.  Congratulations!

Amy Goodloe, Ed.D.

Principal, Chantilly HS

Dear Charger Families,

Congratulations to our Chantilly Class of 2024!  Today we are celebrating 738 graduating Chargers. Thank you to all of our staff, families, and community members for your support and partnership to ensure our students achieved this outstanding accomplishment. I look forward to following how each of our graduates Leads the CHARGE well into the future.  

Join the Summer Reading Adventure!

Chantilly High School is building off the program for the Fairfax County Public library this summer to encourage students to keep reading. From June 12 through the rest of the summer, students can participate in Fairfax County Public Library’s Summer Reading Adventure. We are encouraging students to track the books they read, then visit their neighborhood branch to receive prizes for meeting reading goals.

To add to the fun, when school starts back up in August, students will share what they read with their English teacher. Students who participate will be entered into a drawing for bonus prizes like tickets to school events and Chantilly HS merchandise. Visit fairfaxcounty.beanstack.org for details on how to register and participate.

Keep your mind active this summer and join the adventure! More information and to register: https://research.fairfaxcounty.gov/reading-challenges/summer-reading

As always, I welcome your feedback, questions, and suggestions. I look forward to connecting with you at Chantilly very soon.

Leaving FCPS? Backup Google Drive!

If you are preparing to graduate or leave FCPS for any reason, it’s important to know that your Google Workspace account will be automatically deactivated once you are no longer actively enrolled in FCPS. This process happens during the summer, shortly after the end of the school year.  Once your account is deactivated, you will no longer be able to login to your FCPS Google Drive or access your FCPS Gmail. 

If you will no longer be an FCPS student after this school year, download or export any files you wish to keep before June 12th, 2024. The download process of files can take several days, so please make sure to give yourself plenty of time.

This year students have the option to use Google Takeout to export their files. Visit Google’s directions here: How to download your Google data using Takeout. It’s important to know that you will only be able to export files for which you are the owner. 

If you’d prefer to manually select files from your Drive to download, follow the Downloading Your Data instructions on the Google Workspace Information for Students and Parents page of the FCPS website

🥗 Don’t Forget to Check Your Student’s Lunch Balance! 

It’s a busy time of year, and we know there are many priorities on families’ plates. As we approach the end of the school year, it is important to remember to check your students’ MySchoolBucks account and pay any remaining school meal balance. 

Families that earn less than 185% of poverty level qualify for free and reduced-price meals. However, an application must be completed and submitted each school year to receive that benefit. The application for the 2024-25 school year will be available this summer. 

If families have a current balance and think they may be eligible for free and reduced-price meals, please fill out the FRM application for the 2022-23 school year. Get more information about free and reduced-price lunch.

EOC courses for the fall semester take place Monday, September 23, through Tuesday, December 17, 2024. Students should register by Friday, July 26, at 5 p.m.

Courses are asynchronous, online, and for college credit only. Thirteen courses are offered along with courses that fulfill the IT Technical Support Career Studies Certificate. EOC courses meet the requirements for most of NOVA’s associate degrees as well as being highly transferable as general education requirements for most colleges and universities.

Student Bus Passes Offer Free Summer Transportation

📝 Student Testing Results Coming Soon

Later this month, you will begin receiving your child’s spring assessment results. If you aren’t sure what assessments your child took this year, view this list of tests by grade level on FCPS’ website. 

How the results are delivered depends on the test. Scores will be posted in SIS ParentVUE, or sent by mail or from the school or testing organization. Learn what to expect regarding assessment reporting practices and timelines

A note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Families,

It has been a week full of celebrations at Chantilly HS. I feel very grateful to serve in this amazing Charger community and share in the joys of student academic achievement, performance, and competition.  Our Chargers shined this week in musical performances by our Orchestra, Band and Choir groups including student arranged, conducted, and performed pieces. We celebrated our class of 2024 academic and scholarship awards at Senior Convocation and had a lot of fun connecting with a large number of our seniors at our Senior Sunset BBQ (pictured above). Our girls soccer team represented Chantilly in the Northern Region semi-finals and Boys Track and Field were crowned Northern Region Champions this week!

We are extremely proud of how our students Lead the CHARGE through their actions. There is so much to celebrate at CHS, most notably the care, collaboration, and commitment to our community demonstrated by our students, staff, and families each and every day. I am inspired by the work of our Engineering and OT/PT students in support of a rising Charger. Read more below:

A note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Families,

We have had a great week at Chantilly!  AP testing is winding down, spring athletics are competing in district and region tournaments, spring concerts are kicking off, and we are counting the days to graduation. I am looking forward to celebrating our class of 2024 on Wednesday, May 22 at our Senior BBQ. We have a great menu from 29 Diner and lots of fun activities planned. I hope to see each of our seniors next Wednesday evening at Chantilly!

Attendance

As school winds down and we move into final exam mode (see schedules above), attendance often wains. We ask that you continue to support student daily attendance and engagement in class activities. Chantilly staff is working hard to ensure all students have the opportunities to complete work and assessments prior to final grade posting.  Attendance matters - every day!

EOY Principal's Coffee - May 31, 7:30-8:30 AM

I hope you will join me for an informal time to connect and share feedback on Friday, May 31 at 7:30 AM.  Our coffees are a time to talk and get to know one another and other Charger families.  I look forward to sharing school updates, and seeking your feedback to help guide the 24-25 SY and beyond. 

We Believe...

As we look ahead to Chantilly - Beyond 50 Years, we are looking for input on the key beliefs of all our stakeholders to guide our vision for the future and to develop our collective committments.  Please take a moment to share your essential beliefs about our learning community and what we want to become here.

As always, I welcome your feedback, questions, and suggestions.I look forward to connecting with you at Chantilly very soon.

Leaving FCPS? Backup Google Drive!

If you are preparing to graduate or leave FCPS for any reason, it’s important to know that your Google Workspace account will be automatically deactivated once you are no longer actively enrolled in FCPS. This process happens during the summer, shortly after the end of the school year.  Once your account is deactivated, you will no longer be able to login to your FCPS Google Drive or access your FCPS Gmail. 

If you will no longer be an FCPS student after this school year, download or export any files you wish to keep before June 12th, 2024. The download process of files can take several days, so please make sure to give yourself plenty of time.

This year students have the option to use Google Takeout to export their files. Visit Google’s directions here: How to download your Google data using Takeout. It’s important to know that you will only be able to export files for which you are the owner. 

If you’d prefer to manually select files from your Drive to download, follow the Downloading Your Data instructions on the Google Workspace Information for Students and Parentspage of the FCPS website

Dear Charger Families,

Staff Appreciation Week - Thank you Chantilly Staff!!!

This week at Chantilly, we have been celebrating our outstanding Chantilly Staff during Appreciation Week. We are grateful to our community partners and PTSA for their generous support of meals, snacks, treats and raffle prizes to celebrate the contributions of ALL staff at Chantilly. It has been an energizing week full of recognition and gratitude. 

Attendance Updates - Attendance Matters!

Attendance matters, each and every day. Please know that EXCUSED, full day absences, count towards an individual student's Chronic Absenteeism as well as Chantilly High School's attendance and accreditation rating. It is critical that students (yes, even Seniors!) attend school each day. We ask for your assistance and support in ensuring your student attends classes and submits accurate attendance to their subschool. If you have any questions regarding attendance, please visit our website.

Celebrations and Recognitions

As the end of the 23-24 school year quickly approaches, we look forward to recognizing and celebrating our Chantilly Chargers! This week I have had the pleasure of celebrating along with teachers, coaches and families, our class of 2024 baseball, boys and girls soccer, Chantilly Academy signees for career contracts, and AVID college acceptances. Our Chargers Lead the CHARGE in so many outstanding ways. We cannot wait to recognize their contributions at upcoming concert performances, underclassman awards, convocation for seniors and graduation.  Please be sure to read the Recognitions section below for additional student accomplishments!

Safety Reminders

Please remind your students to access the crosswalks when walking and biking to Chantilly HS and to follow instructions of all security staff and our crossing guard. Drivers, we remind you to follow the approved traffic patterns and to follow all security staff directions to ensure your safety through our parking lots and to protect our students and staff.

As always, I welcome your feedback, questions, and suggestions. Please share your thoughts with me here. I look forward to connecting with you at Chantilly very soon.

Dear Charger Families,

Thank you for your support and feedback as we piloted a new SOL testing bell schedule with flexible learning time for students. We had outstanding attendance for the assessments, and were encouraged by student engagement with teachers to catch up on work, study and prepare for end of year activities. Thank you especially for your patience with attendance verification updates. Our staff is working diligently to ensure all attendance coding is updated by close of business Friday, May 3.  If you note an attendance error, please reach out to your student's subschool next week.

May 6-10:  Chantilly Staff Appreciation Week

Next week we will celebrate and recognize all Chantilly staff members for their dedication, commitment, and amazing efforts on behalf of all students. While we have planned events to recognize staff with meals, raffle prizes and spirit wear, it is often the personal, small gestures from students and families that make the biggest impact. I encourage you and your students to send an email, share a card or handwritten note, or a small sweet treat with a staff member next week to show appreciation. We are grateful for our amazing Charger community and our partnership!

Chantilly High School is proud to partner with Food For Neighbors (FFN) to help feed our local students who deal with food insecurity because even in counties as wealthy as Arlington, Fairfax and Loudoun at least one in four kids in our area are struggling with hunger.

Food for Neighbors is a local organization addressing this problem by collecting food from our community via the Red Bag Program and donating directly to our local schools. The food is then distributed to our students every week through our food pantry.

We hope you will consider participating in the Red Bag food collection program. You can make a difference in a local student’s life by simply adding a few extra items to your shopping cart every 2 months.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Request a reusable Red Bag here and Food For Neighbors will drop it off at your house.
  2. Fill the Red Bag with food items that are listed on a tag on that bag.
  3. Put the Red Bag outside your front door in the morning on the next bag collection day (which is Saturday, April 27th). And don’t worry, they send reminders.

Your Red Bag will be picked up from your house, the food sorted at a local school and delivered directly to the school food pantry at CHS. As an added benefit, you can get a tax deduction for the food that you donate!

With your help, even more kids can be fed. For more information on the Red Bag program click hereCheck out what items FFN collects as they are targeted to ready-made, individually packaged food items that students and teens can eat on-the-go or with little preparation.

The organization also offers volunteer opportunities including Driving to pick up filled Red Bags and Sorting the donated food during the Red Bag Day events. Visit the FFN FAQ page to find out more about and to sign up to volunteer in these 2 very important roles. This is a great way for students to receive community service hours, too.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact ; Nick Thayer [email protected] (Social Worker), Heather Ellison [email protected] (FFN Area Manager) or Karen Joseph [email protected] (FFN Executive Director)

Thanks for helping us provide food to students who need that extra support!

A note from Dr. Goodloe

Dear Charger Families,

It is great to be a Chantilly Charger! We have had a fantastic week of learning and activity at Chantilly and are looking forward to a great weekend ahead celebrating with our Seniors at Prom at Sweeney Barn Saturday evening.  We kicked off the weekend and district play for our spring sports with a Spring Activities Pep Rally earlier today hosted by Chantilly Leadership which included an awesome dance performance by members of our Chantilly STEP team. Earlier this week, our friends and future Chargers from Brookfield Elementary School visited with our Chantilly Scholars to look ahead to high school opportunities including a tour of our Chantilly Academy. And it was a pleasure to connect with our class of 2028 from Rachel Carson MS on a visit along with Mr. Shin and Mr. Bowerman showcasing the great opportunities to get involved at Chantilly for our future students. I am energized each day by the connections our students are making with one another, and in the community. #LeadtheCHARGE

Visual and Performing Arts:

On April 5, the Chantilly community came together to celebrate the arts at the annual Chantilly Pyramid Art Show. This exciting event showcased the creative talents of students from Brookfield Elementary, Greenbriar East Elementary, Greenbriar West Elementary, Lees Corner Elementary, Poplar Tree Elementary, Franklin Middle, Rocky Run Middle and Chantilly High School. Visit here to see more!

Our Spring Main Stage performances of  the musical Anything Goes opens on Thursday, April 18. I cannot wait to see our talented Chargers performing. Tickets are going fast, especially for Friday night's Cappies performance. For tickets and additional information, visit www.chantillydrama.org

Month of Military Child Spirit Week and Purple Up!

This April, we celebrate children of our service members and veterans whose sacrifice and support allow their parents to serve our Nation and protect children everywhere. At Chantilly we are grateful for our military connections and the service of our families. Purple Up is the campaign that propels activities throughout the Month of the Military Child to honor,
acknowledge, and support Military Connected Youth in our schools and communities. A Military Connected Youth is a child or adolescent with a close family member (parent, step parent, sibling, step-sibling, cousin) or
friend serving in any branch of the United States Armed Forces and any status, Active Duty, Reserve, or National Guard. Military Connected Youth face unique challenges. These youth deserve our support as they support their family members who serve. We look forward to celebrating Purple Up Day on April 17 and encourage all in our school community to wear purple to show their support.

Your Red Bag will be picked up from your house, the food sorted at a local school and delivered directly to the school food pantry at CHS. As an added benefit, you can get a tax deduction for the food that you donate!

With your help, even more kids can be fed. For more information on the Red Bag program click hereCheck out what items FFN collects as they are targeted to ready-made, individually packaged food items that students and teens can eat on-the-go or with little preparation.

The organization also offers volunteer opportunities including Driving to pick up filled Red Bags and Sorting the donated food during the Red Bag Day events. Visit the FFN FAQ page to find out more about and to sign up to volunteer in these 2 very important roles. This is a great way for students to receive community service hours, too.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact ; Nick Thayer [email protected] (Social Worker), Heather Ellison [email protected] (FFN Area Manager) or Karen Joseph [email protected] (FFN Executive Director)

Thanks for helping us provide food to students who need that extra support!
