We know that this is not easy and want to shine a light on all your efforts. As a thank you, Draper James would like to give you a free dress.

To apply, please complete the form below before Sunday, April 5th at 11:59PM ET, and we will be in touch next week on Tuesday, April 7th with more details on how to redeem your new dress. (Offer valid while supplies last.)

If you have young children it can be hard to find things to do all day, so here is a great way to get outside and do something fun, without touching or coughing on each other. St. Patrick’s day is today and it would be fun to have a community wide ☘️Shamrock hunt☘️!
All you have to do is put a shamrock in your window. ☘️☘️ That’s it! Color it, paint it, cut it out, print it from your printer, whatever! Then we go outside, walk around and see how many shamrocks we find. It’s easy. No human contact. Get fresh air! Just put a shamrock in your window! Pass it along to friends in your neighborhood. HAPPY SHAMROCK HUNTING.
Feel free to show your shamrocks in the comments below

Starting today, School Nutrition Services staff members will serve free breakfast and lunch daily at all schools during the period of school closure. Meal service will run from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Meals will be available at each school and students will be allowed to receive two meals daily (a breakfast and a lunch) and may choose to take both meals simultaneously.

Since the schools are closed, please consider showing some support and donate to the Dulles South food pantry or Mobile Hope.

Waxpool’s Math Tournament has been cancelled until further notice. Thank you

[03/12/20]   Dear LCPS Families and Staff:

I sincerely apologize for sending you a message regarding school closure with minimal time to make adjustments; however, given the rapidly evolving situation with the COVID-19 virus, Loudoun County Public Schools are closed today, Thursday, March 12th through Friday, March 20th. All activities are also cancelled at this time. Administrative Offices will open at twelve today with regular office hours on other days during the school closure.

As you may know, the World Health Organization declared the novel Coronavirus outbreak a global pandemic yesterday, travel between the United States and Europe was recently suspended, and some events and large gatherings have been postponed or cancelled in our region, state, and nation. Loudoun County has experienced at least one presumptive positive case of COVID-19. While Loudoun County has not experienced the extent of presumptive positive cases of COVID-19 as some other areas within our nation or globally and has not had cases that meet the definition of community transmission, we are making this decision out of an abundance of caution. We plan to announce next steps by the end of next week.

The safety and well-being of Loudoun County Public Schools’ students, staff, and families is our highest priority; therefore, we need time as a school system to reassess this rapidly evolving situation by taking time to:

•continue our daily consultation with the Loudoun County Health Department to consider the latest information regarding presumptive positive cases of COVID-19 in Loudoun County as well as recommendations based on that information to determine whether to reopen schools on March 23;

•review recommendations from other experts, such as the Virginia Department of Health and the CDC;

•consider the community mitigation strategies for school systems recently set forth by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) as well as any related follow-up recommendations; and

•develop specific mitigation strategies to implement when schools reopen, as early as March 23.

While we are unaware of any presumptive positive cases of individuals connected to schools, schools will be thoroughly cleaned before they reopen.

Please continue to exercise proper hand washing with soap and other universal preventive actions such as covering your cough, sneezing into your elbow or tissue (throw away tissue), avoid touching your eyes, nose, mouth, and clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces at home.

We will provide you with multiple updates during the closure. Among numerous issues, we are considering different ways of supporting students who rely on our school meals program due to food insecurity. We are also developing guidance to principals and teachers regarding potential distance learning options and expectations in the event that the closure is extended.

Thank you for your support and understanding as we balance proactive measures of caution and timely communication.

Eric Williams, Ed.D.
Superintendent
