Falls Church City Public Schools (FCCPS) is an independent public school division that serves students who live in the Washington, D.C. suburb of the City of Falls Church, Virginia as well as tuition students who live outside the city limits. The school division's four, now five in 2015, schools served 2,415 students in the 2013-2014 school year.[1] The on-time graduation rate is 97 percent.[1] The 2013 SAT score average was 1764.[1]

Of the now five schools in the FCCPS system, only one, Mt. Daniel Elementary School, is located outside the city boundaries in neighboring Fairfax County after the City's borders have been readjusted following the settlement of a dispute with the county over the City's water system.

The FCCPS officially became an independent school system on June 27, 1949, when the Virginia Board of Education authorized its separation from the Fairfax County school system. Falls Church had obtained the enabling legislation to form an independent city in the year before, in 1948.
