Stay Connected

You don’t need to have a student enrolled in Fredericksburg City Public Schools to stay connected with our schools. Through ParentSquare Community Groups, residents, alumni, community partners, and other interested individuals can sign up to receive school and division updates. Current FCPS families and staff can also join.

Choose the available groups that interest you to receive notifications when new information is shared.
