Congratulations to Tim Bowers, Project Manager for the Department of Support Services, this month’s SHINE Award recipient.

Nominated by Banneker Principal Robert Carter, Mr. Bowers was recognized for his responsiveness and clear communication.

Our current One LCPS: 2027 Strategic Plan for Excellence has helped guide our work and priorities. As we look ahead, we are developing a new Strategic Plan for 2027–2032 that will help us focus our collective efforts over the next five years. Our Strategic Planning Team has been listening, learning and working together to develop draft goals and strategies for the new plan, with feedback from the community along the way.

Now, we are inviting students, families, staff and community members to share their thoughts on the draft goals and strategies.

We are using ThoughtExchange, an online platform that gives everyone an opportunity to share their perspectives and rate others' ideas.

Please take a few minutes to participate between September 16 and October 1. Participate in the 2027-2032 Strategic Plan ThoughtExchange and learn more: lcps.org/thoughtexchange

Community Input: 2028-29 School Calendar Options

The Loudoun County School Board is scheduled to vote on the 2028-29 school year calendar at its next School Board meeting being held Tuesday, Sept. 22.

Since the calendar options were last presented to the community for consideration, School Board members have proposed revisions and new calendar options that may be considered for a vote. Because of these changes, we want to make sure our community has an opportunity to review the options that could be before the School Board next week and provide feedback directly to the members who will be making the decision.
