Referral Deadline for Full-Time AAP Services is Approaching

Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) is committed to challenging all students through talent development efforts and differentiated instruction to meet the needs of all students through its continuum of services.

Some advanced learners need full-time advanced academics program (AAP) services with differentiated instruction in all four content areas (language arts, math, social studies and science) in order to have academic peers in the classroom. Full-Time AAP services begin in 3^rd grade.

If you would like to refer your 2^nd through 6^th grade student for screening (consideration) for full-time AAP services, please submit a referral no later than December 15. 

For information about the referral, screening, and identification process for AAP services, please contact our Advanced Academics Resource Teacher (AART), Kathy Van Dyke, at @email.
