Students worked extra hard to earn the opportunity to smash a pie in their beloved teachers’ faces. Gives new meaning to inspiring a love of learning 😂

One of our very favorite days of the year is when Leesburg Mayor Kelly Burk stops by to say hello to our prekindergarteners! They love learning about community helpers together and why it’s so important to be a good neighbor. Thank you, Mayor Burk, for visiting some of our littlest citizens!

Third graders enjoyed learning about the planets with a field trip to the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum in DC. They were able to hold various asteroid rocks, watched a movie in the planetarium and more. They had an out-of-this-world experience!

This Black History Month, third graders honored the legacies of many prominent African Americans, celebrating innovators, role models, civil rights leaders and more.

Night 2 of the annual Variety Show did not disappoint. Our older students brought down the house with their phenomenal talents!

We are blown away by our students’ talents and stage presence. We had over 40 performances in our 1st-4th grade Variety Show tonight!

So proud of all of our incredible performers and emcees and their willingness to take the stage in front of a full house. Special thanks to Mrs. Roos for all the work and love she puts into making the magic happen. Bravo!

Oh what a night! Our carnival-themed daughter date night was the hot ticket this weekend. Thank you to our wonderful parent volunteers, especially event chairs Monica Christman, Meghan Dozer & Michele Flynn.

It was a magical evening for everyone!

Congratulations to the LCDS Boys Basketball Team, who won this weekend’s Talon Tournament! Great job bringing home the gold, Eagles!

It was so much fun watching local young athletes play. Thank you to Sacred Heart Academy, Powhatan School and Providence Academy for the great competition!

The Talon Tournament Pep Rally and player dinner were epic! We love our Eagles!

Special thanks to the coaches and parent volunteers who made it so special… and to Zell’s Kitchen for the delicious bbq pork and chicken catering.

Third graders shared their explorer presentations, becoming famous voyagers ranging from astronaut Sally Ride to Sir Walter Raleigh. Students spent weeks researching their subjects, writing detailed reports, and finally honing their public speaking skills by becoming their explorers.

Valentine’s Day brought out the love all week, as Middle School Student Council raised $270 for Loudoun Hunger Relief with a hot cocoa sale, students helped their younger buddies make Valentines, French students made theirs en francais, and our littles limbo’d their hearts out. Sending love to our wonderful community! 💕

In art class, 1st graders learned about self-taught artist and muralist James Goldcrown. Their finished works of art were then hung in the Lower School teacher’s lounge to show appreciation.❤️

LCDS will be closed tomorrow, February 12, 2025 due to the winter weather. Stay safe and warm!

Whatever happens in the big game, our big winner is Mrs. Zebell. Congratulations on winning our Friday Faculty Football Challenge!

LCDS 3rd graders were given full rein of Mrs. Rood’s art room to create something Super Bowl themed. Here is just a sampling of the super creative things they made!
