  • Chairman's Message ^
    QUICK JUMP • Chairman’s Message • Director’s Message • The Fairfax County Park Authority Board • People in Our Parks • Parks by the Numbers • 2013 Elly Doyle Park Service Awards • Accolades and Awards • Contact Us Chairman’s Message ^ Thank you for taking a few moments to glance at our Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2014. We feel it is important to reflect on recent accomplishments and challenges and to share that information with you. As always, it has been a productive year and I am very proud of our staff and leadership. This year our efforts to focus on strengthening our partnerships in this community are helping our park system. In my six terms as Chairman of the Park Authority Board, I have worked hand-in-hand with individuals who understand the value of working together for the common betterment of the community The commitment to our park system by our partners has made a significant difference in our ability to deal with these challenging budget times. Let me share some insights on how these partnerships and collaborations benefit all of us. I was honored to be a recipient of the Tony Griffin Partnership Leader Award presented by the Office of Private Partnerships, affectionately known as OP3, William Bouie this past May. It is a great honor to be recognized in this manner but I can hardly take credit for this accolade alone. Each year individuals and organizations use the Mastenbrook Volunteer Matching Fund Grant program to help fund projects in the community such as batting cages, dog parks or playgrounds. This year, the Park Authority Board increased the maximum from $10,000 to $20,000, thus stretching those dollars even further and increasing the possibilities for community-driven improvements in our parks.

  • Private Schools
    ADVERTISEMENT private schools Finding the Perfect Fit iven the scores of private school options available in the greater Washington area, it’s little wonder that the G prospect of choosing the right institution for your child can seem daunting. Still, while it is hardly as simple as A-B-C, most of the area’s top experts in the private school arena seem to agree on strategies for parents suff ering from the paradox of choice. ADVERTISEMENT private schools The decision of where a child goes to school is one of most important ones a parent must make. So, the experts advise parents to take their time, research comprehensively, and visit as many schools as possible. But before hitting the books, so to speak, the fi rst thing to do is to study your child. Knowing what motivates him, knowing her learning style, understanding his personality type — all will help in the eff ort to find the perfect match. Ron Goldblatt, executive director of the Association of Independent Maryland & D.C. Schools (AIMS), suggests taking an inventory of your child. “If they are younger, can they sit still? Do they need higher levels of supervision? How confi dent are they? What is their temperament? Is behavior altered through adherence to rules or by having meaningful conversation?” The second part of the analysis is deciding which traits you want to nurture in your child. If community service is important, look for a school that requires volunteer work. If a child is highly creative, look for a program that teaches outside the box.
