My First Book Club -Designed for preschool students to improve
literacy, develop a love of reading and promote peer interaction, each
month students receive a new book for classroom and at-home reading.
Teachers set individual reading goals and read together in a group
setting. Students receive book bins to build their first home library.
For some students, these are the first books they have ever owned. Your
annual donation will give a child a new book every month, including a Holiday gift and two books for summer reading.

Educator Grants - For over 30 years the Foundation has provided grants to dedicated Fauquier County public school teachers, educators and administrators to enable them to participate in high-quality professional development that directly impacts their classroom teaching. Your donation supports teacher participation in conferences, seminars, research, cultural programs and summer institutes by covering registration fees, travel, course materials and other related costs. For many teachers, they could not participate without this support.

We are so grateful for your on-going support. In 2020, we were unable to host important fundraisers and are uncertain about events for 2021. In order to build a strong and sustainable Foundation, and continue to provide programs and services for Fauquier County Public Schools, we welcome donations all year long.
