The Fairfax County Public Schools system (FCPS) is a school division in the U.S. commonwealth of Virginia. It is a branch of the Fairfax County government which administers public schools in Fairfax County and the City of Fairfax. FCPS's headquarters is located in the Gatehouse Administration Center in Merrifield, an unincorporated section of the county near the city of Falls Church; the headquarters has a Falls Church address but is not within the city limits.[6][7]

With over 185,000 students enrolled, FCPS is the largest public school system in Virginia and one of the largest in the country.[2][8] The school division has been led by Division Superintendent Michelle Reid since July 2022.[9][10]
