The outbreak of COVID-19 can result in stress, especially for students who may be struggling to process fear and anxiety related to the virus. FVSD's Support Services team of School Counselors and School Psychologists has compiled information on our site which may be helpful for students and families. Included are resources for talking to students about COVID-19 and coping with stress. Moreover, links and information on FVSD's mental health and wellness resources, including CareSolace, Outreach Concern and our middle school counselors, are available. Lastly, there are a number of community healthy partners and emergency resources included for our families. For all of our mental health and wellness resources, please visit our site here.

HIGHLIGHT: Students Return to Campus in Hybrid Learning
So Good to See You!
Highlight does not begin to describe our happiness for the return to campus for our hybrid students! With great excitement, our elementary and middle school campuses welcomed in-person students back to campus in a hybrid schedule. Masks could not hide the smiles on our students, parents and staff's faces as students came back into our classrooms. Thank you to all of our families for your continuous support of our students and the safe return to school. Keeping our kids in class is truly a partnership between home and school and we are grateful for all that you continue to do to make this a successful transition!
We could not be more proud of our FVSDConnected Chameleons as they continue to crush the 2020-21 school year! Students are connected daily, engaged with committed teachers and challenged to excel in a rigorous online program. Thank you to all of our FVSDConnected families for your continued support of our virtual learning! With your help, our Chameleons will continue to thrive online and at home!
