Congratulations to Mr. Larry Jones, Ms. Tory Swanson, Ms. Angela Frattura, Ms. Vickie Okoye, Ms. Pierce Prior, and Ms. Marilyn Wilson on their recognition as the FCPS February 2022 Region 3 FCPS CARES of the Month Recipients by the Department of Human Resources!

The FCPS CARES Program is an opportunity for parents, staff, and community members to recognize FCPS employees for going above and beyond to help others and show they care. We invite you to submit your story below, so we can all acknowledge the good work of FCPS employees.

Below is the write-up submitted by a Laura Thieman, an FCPS central office colleague.

In my eight years in FCPS, I have not seen a school team welcome a new student and parent with such hospitality, kindness and warmth as the Bucknell Team on 2/14/2022. Caring Culture was lived out at every turn, from the welcoming administration, to the school social worker and counselor, to the family liaison and to the incredible teacher. These are life-changing moments for families and it is inspiring to see you in action. You establish trust and build rapport by listening, drawing out strengths and making time to understand both the struggles and hopes of the parent and student. Your partnerships with families are a beacon of inspiration! Thanks to each of you for all you do for all of your families and students each and every day!
