Website Side Calendar Issues

Many of you may have acknowledged that there is an issue with the scroll bar on the side calendar on the main screen of the Glasgow Website.  There is a hang-up in the coding and it is currently being worked on.  We are trying to rectify it so that it works again as normal.  Please use the tab listed as "calendar" for all important dates.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

**UPDATE** FCPS Mobile App Available Now, and ALL-NEW Mobile Glasgow Site Coming Soon!

Glasgow Community,

We would like to take the time to let you know Fairfax County Public Schools has a mobile app - it is completely free - and is available for iPhone and Android currently.  There is another app that looks similar, but costs money - that is not the official one.  The official one is free.

Furthermore,  Mr. Stuecheli is redesigning the Glasgow Mobile Web version and we are very close to it's release!  It should be all ready and up and running by Wednesday, November 20th, 2013!
Please keep up with Glasgow's Announcement section of the website for more details.

On the new mobile site, you'll be able to call/email the staff member right from your phone.  The page will be a mobilized version of our main page.  There will be a few parts from the main page that will not be on the mobile site, but all contacts will remain as will much much more!  We really believe you'll find it be very helpful for you!
