Over $13 million in federal funding for Fairfax County Public Schools is under review by the U.S. Department of Education, potentially impacting teachers and multilingual learners. The freeze affects grants supporting teacher professional development and programs for multilingual students. Superintendent Michelle Reid expressed concern about the impact on students and staff, noting the need for alternative planning if the freeze persists. The review encompasses several Title grant programs, including migrant education. The Virginia Association of School Superintendents is also addressing similar concerns with the state's congressional delegation.
