About the Event
Stakeholders in FCPS have the opportunity to speak about the budget at a public hearing on May 5. The school board will then hold a work session on May 10, and vote on the budget on May 26. The hearing on May 5 is the primary way for folks to have their input on what they would like the school system to prioritize in its budget ("Budget is Policy"). Generally all speakers who register in advance are heard, and if there are many a second night is set aside. The registration opens on April 21 and continues into the first week in May. There is likely to be both an in-person and virtual option for testimony; speakers are likely to have two minutes in which to speak. Registration is online at this site, starting on April 21: Register to speak at Budget Public Hearing. Â Â Â "Stakeholders" includes: 1) residents of Fairfax City or County; 2) current students in FCPS; 3) parents/guardians of current students in FCPS; and 4) current employees of FCPS.
