A Note from Dr. Goodloe:Dear Chantilly Charger Community,
Chantilly is a strong, supportive, and compassionate community. As you know, we have recently experienced the loss of one of our students. This tragedy has deeply affected our entire school community, and we are all grieving.
In the midst of this difficult time, I have been so moved by the outpouring of love and support that our community has shown for one another. I have seen students comforting students, parents reaching out to parents, and teachers providing extra support to their students and one another. This is the kind of caring and compassionate community that makes Chantilly such a special place to learn and work.
I know that we will continue to support one another as we heal from this loss. If your child is struggling, please do not hesitate to reach out to their teacher, school counselor, or another trusted adult. We are here to help.
Our Chargers continue to shine in the classroom, athletics, and in the community. A few recent highlights
- On February 7, our school community hosted a vibrant and joyous Cultural Night that showcased the many cultures that make up Chantilly. Click here to read about and see highlights!
- So much talent was on display last evening at Chantilly's Got Talent show sponsored by SGA! We are so proud of our students for sharing their passions with our community.
- Our Speech team captured the Super Regional title earlier this week and now moves on to the VHSL State Competition. Congratulations!
- Girls basketball has moved on to the Region tournament and celebrated a milestone for one of our seniors this week. Congratulations to Emerson Mustard, who scored her 1000th point for Chantilly during district play offs.
- Our Chronic Absenteeism rate is a full 2% below this time last year AND we have demonstrated the greatest progress of all Region 5 high schools. Thank you for your partnership in making attendance a priority for our Chargers.
- Spring activities and athletics are just around the corner! Tryouts for all spring sports begin on Monday, February 24.
I look forward to connecting with you at Chantilly very soon!

Charger Headlines:Academic Advising Mini-Conferences (rising 10-12th grade only)
Academic Advising is in full swing at Chantilly HS, and we’re excited to offer mini-conferences for families again this year. These conferences provide the opportunity for students and parents to meet briefly with their school counselor for the purpose of face-to-face discussion around course selections for the 25-26 school year. The intent of these conferences is to both:
1) provide additional opportunity for school-home partnering around academic advising
2) improve accuracy of staffing needs before decisions impacting teachers must be made in March. As a reminder, no schedule changes are permitted after March 7, 2025
The mini-conferences will be held on:
- Tuesday March 4 from 3:30pm-6:30pm
- Thursday March 6 from 1:30pm-4:30pm
You must reserve a spot through Signup Genius (see link below). One spot per student.
Directions:
- Use the sign-up genius link. Find your student’s counselor and your preferred time slot.
- Choose the 10-minute time slot that works for you.
- In the “My Comment” section that comes up after you choose the desired time, please put your student’s name and then hit “Sign Up Now”.
- If you have more than one student at Chantilly, you may sign up for a second slot. Please put a different student name in each time slot.
If you sign up for a spot and your plans change, please be sure to delete your appointment so others can use that time slot. We look forward to collaborating with you and your child as we begin our preparations for the 2025-26 school year. If you are unable to sign-up for a time slot, please email your student’s counselor to schedule a time to review their course selections via a phone conference. As a reminder, all rising senior parents and students will be invited to meet with their counselor this Spring to discuss post-secondary planning and the college application process.
Academic Advising/Course Selection Timeline of Events
From January-March, students will meet individually with their counselor to review course selections and alignment with diploma type, post-secondary plans, or other priorities students may have around course selection. After March 7, 2025, we will be unable to make any additional class changes as we make staffing and course offering decisions in mid-March based upon student course selections. Below is information for your review.
Course Videos, Course Catalog, and Academic Advising Site available for student and parent review. Also available on the Chantilly HS Webpage
March 7, 2025 - Course Selection Deadline - Students may not make any schedule changes after 3:30 PM. Students planning to take a summer class(not recommended) must enroll and notify their counselor by March 7. Failure to do so may result in a lack of seats in a needed course.
We look forward to working with your student during advising season and to helping support your student’s growth and academic progress. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to your child’s counselor or to [email protected]

Become Unskippable: Practical Guidance for Talking With Teens About Fentanyl
Teens skip things that don't interest them, including lectures from their parents. But young people die from fentanyl overdoses in Fairfax County each year — so it's important to have short, impactful talks with your teen, whether or not you think they’re at risk.
As a parent or caregiver, you have the power to become “unskippable” and talk with your teen in a way they will listen.
See our tips for talking with your teen about fentanyl and other difficult subjects. Watch this video to learn more about becoming unskippable.
Student Fasting Meal Kits for February 28 - March 28, 2025
The Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) has issued a new, first-time waiver allowing students fasting during the school day from February 28 to March 28, 2025, to request take-home breakfast and lunch meal kits. The Office of Food and Nutrition Services (FNS) will provide meal kits reflecting the school menu. Meals will be kept cold and must be heated at home. Students may claim one breakfast and one lunch kit per day. If a student purchases breakfast or lunch at school, they cannot pick up a kit that day. Meal kits must be picked up by students at the end of the school day—adults cannot collect them. Parents or guardians must submit a weekly request form via the FCPS FNS website by the deadlines:
- February 24, 2025, for February 28 and the week of March 3, 2025
- March 3, 2025, for the week of March 10, 2025
- March 10, 2025, for the week of March 17, 2025
- March 17, 2025, for the week of March 24, 2025
Forms must be submitted on time to receive meal kits for the following week.
2025 Fairfax County Teen Job Fair
Board of Supervisor Pat Herrity is teaming up with Fairfax County Times Newspapers, Fairfax County Public Schools, as well as local chambers and organizations to bring our community two Fairfax County Teen Job Fairs and Career-Building Workshops. These events focus on students and young job seekers looking for a variety of employment opportunities; full time, after-school, seasonal positions, internship opportunities, and volunteer positions.
Past fairs have provided thousands of teenagers the opportunity to get in front of employers and for our employers to find talented Fairfax County students to fill their positions. Last year, we had over 1,500 students and roughly 100 businesses participate. The fairs are open to all teens in Fairfax County looking for employment, volunteer opportunities, or tips on building their resume.
For more information and to view the full schedule, please visit the event webpage.
