Help us welcome our military-connected lions during this Blue Star Welcome Week by wearing blue on Wednesday September 30th 💙

This week is Blue Star Welcome Week! Did you know roughly 600,000 military-connected families move every year! Some families move to new states or countries, while some enter or leave the military altogether. Most of these moves take place over the summer, which means military connected kids often start the year as new students. Laurel Ridge lions always want to make military families feel welcome and belonging. Blue Star Welcome Week is a chance for us to welcome our military-connected families and show them we appreciate their service and sacrifices.

🚌 Student ID cards were distributed to all our students who ride the school bus or use FCPS transportation services today! ID cards should be attached to your child’s backpack and brought to the bus each day. Students who have student ID cards should begin tapping as they board and exit the bus.

We ask for your patience as we transition to the new system. Bus drivers are checking in students and may need some extra time at each bus stop while they do this. The transportation team is working hard to minimize any potential delays. Learn more about the bus navigation and student ID cards: https://www.fcps.edu/services/families-and-caregivers/transportation/school-bus-navigation-system-and-student-id-cards
