Advanced Academics Programs (AAP)
Spring Screening for Subject-Specific or Parttime AAP Services
Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) is committed to challenging all students through talent development and differentiated instruction to meet the needs of advanced learners. Students can be screened for subject specific and part time AAP services at any time in the school year. In the spring, schools review data on all students to determine services for the start of the next school year. Parents or guardians can initiate the screening process by submitting the AAP School-Based Services Referral Form by April 24, 2026. Please direct referral forms to Clearview’s Advanced Academics Resource Teacher (AART), Holly Hill, at hlhill@fpcs.edu. She is happy to answer any questions you may have regarding the screening process or advanced academic programs.
Additional information about Advanced Academic Programs can be found in the AAP Spring Newsletter.

Autism Acceptance Month
April is Autism Acceptance Month. One in 31 children is diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder in the United States, according to the CDC. All of us play a vital role in creating and ensuring inclusive environments that accommodate and affirm autistic students.
We are happy to report that all students on the autism spectrum at Clearview, based on their individual strengths and needs, are included with their same age peers. Thanks to our amazing Preschool Autism Classroom (PAC) team who created this incredible bulletin board.
