Our Ignite Partnership model represents current needs within FCPS, our partnership goals, and the work of the Business and Community Partnerships team.  There are however, different ways to partner with FCPS. 

• Advance an Existing Program:
  • Fairfax County Public Schools has a host of existing opportunities where businesses and community organization support is welcome.  These are not Ignite Partnerships. 
    Because they are existing, the FCPS leaders of these programs have existing needs and their own engagement processes.  
    Please contact the individuals associate with each existing program listed below:
    • Adult and Community Education
    • Business and Information Technology
    • Career Connections
    • College Partnership Program
