We are pleased to share with students and families the work staff members have been doing over the summer on important instructional initiatives such as bringing Full Day Kindergarten to all kindergarten students, initiating the first phase of a multi-year plan to provide every student from grade three to twelve with a laptop, and expanding personalized learning from ten schools to twenty-five. Our work is designed to empower all students to make meaningful contributions to the world through careers, community service and civic engagement. I invite you to join me in supporting our school division and your child’s school as we shape the future of our changing and growing community of learners. Warm Regards, Eric Williams, Ed.D.

Loudoun County Public Schools

Communications

COMMUNICATIONS BlackboardConnect Loudoun County Public Schools utilizes the BlackboardConnect Phone Messaging System to personally communicate with parents about emergency situations, school events and important issues affecting your child. Since this system is used to notify you of an emergency situation with your student, you cannot completely opt-out of this system. You may use a form on the LCPS website, www.lcps.org, which allows you the option to be removed from the “weather-related” closing and delay message only. Loudoun County Public Schools will continue to use the traditional methods of radio and TV in addition to our website, email and text messaging capabilities via the voluntary Alert Loudoun 2.0 system offered by Loudoun Government (www.loudoun.gov/alert) to notify parents of weather-related closing and delays. Weather-related closing and delay messages are district-wide messages that are sent early in the morning (6 a.m.) or at night (prior to 10 p.m.) notifying parents that schools will be closed or operating on a delay due to inclement weather.

LCPS Extends Reach to Community through Social Media Loudoun County Public Schools has extended its communications outreach to students, families, employees and the greater community through the use of the popular social media tools Facebook and Twitter. Users of these social media get up-to-date LCPS information and announcements, including weather delays and school closings. You can add The Official Loudoun County Public Schools to your Facebook account’s newsfeed by clicking “like” at www.facebook.com/LCPSofficial. Twitter users can follow LCPS news via @LCPSofficial. These sites may also be accessed by clicking on the Facebook and Twitter icons found on the www.lcps.org home page.

LCPS Mobile App The LCPS App is available for a free download from both the Apple App Store and the Google Play App Store. The app will be helpful for anyone wishing to engage with information about LCPS, including parents, staff, students and members of the general public. Once the app is downloaded, users can customize their access according to the specific schools they wish to follow. A parent with students in multiple schools, for instance, could customize his or her view to include all of the schools attended by their children. The app is an aggregator that pulls together the district’s most frequently used web tools in one location.

Family Life Education Curriculum The LCPS Family Life Curriculum has among its primary goals the following: teaching that all human beings have worth and dignity; the family is the primary structure of our society; parents are and should be the primary family life educators for their children. There is a form, called the “Opt-Out Form,” through which parents may request that their child be excused from all or part of the Family Life Curriculum. An Opt-Out form must be completed and returned to the school within the first eight days of the school year. Curriculum guides and materials used in Family Life classes are open for review each year during the “Parent Preview”. More information is available from the Family Life Education Supervisor at (571) 252-1430.

Policies and Regulations

POLICIES AND REGULATIONS Loudoun school policies are published in the School Board Policy Manual,“Loudoun County Public Schools Policies and Regulations,” have been posted to our website, www.lcps.org, as mandated by the Code of Virginia. Printed copies of the policies are available as needed to citizens who do not have online access. The “Student Rights and Responsibilities,” which explains policies and rules for school conduct, has also been posted on our website. This guide and directory is not meant to be a comprehensive listing of all the rules and regulations governing Loudoun County Public Schools. This is merely an abbreviated compilation of some of the policies that are most often asked about.

Minute of Silence The Commonwealth of Virginia requires that each school day begin with a minute of silence. Students shall not disrupt or distract the rights of others during the minute of silence.

Pledge of Allegiance The Commonwealth of Virginia requires the daily recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance. It provides that no student shall be compelled to recite the Pledge if the student or the parent or guardian objects on religious, philosophical, or other grounds to the student’s participating in this exercise. It further provides that students who are exempt from recitation of the Pledge shall remain quietly standing or sitting at their desk while others recite the Pledge and shall make no display that disrupts or distracts others.

Excused Absences School principals excuse student absences for such reasons as medical appointments, court appearances, religious holidays and personal illness. Students who need to be dismissed for part of the day on a regular basis must obtain a waiver from the Superintendent, Policy §8-17.

School-Based Dress Codes The dress code for LCPS students is defined by Policy §8270 of the School Board Policy Manual. This policy reads in part:“All students who attend Loudoun County Public Schools are expected to dress appropriately for a K-12 educational environment. A student’s attire should facilitate the participation in learning as well as the health and safety of students. This policy is intended to provide guidance for students, staff and parents. Students must wear clothing that is appropriate to a K-12 educational environment and that does not or is not likely to cause a substantial disruption. Students are responsible for complying with the division dress code during school hours and school sponsored activities, staff are responsible for communicating and equitably enforcing the division dress code during school hours and school-sponsored activities and parents or 26

Loudoun County Public Schools

Policies and Regulations guardians are responsible for ensuring student compliance with the division dress code.” Parents or guardians of students requiring accommodation for religious beliefs, disabilities, or other good causes should contact the principal or principal’s designee. Please refer to policy §8270 for a comprehensive list of appropriate attire.

Why Loudoun County Public Schools Doesn’t Have Snow Days 1. The Commonwealth of Virginia requires that schools provide a minimum 990 hours of instructional time each school year with each school day being at least 5.5 hours in length. 2. School divisions are required to have a plan for making up a total of 15 days missed because of bad weather or other emergencies. For 2018-2019, Loudoun County Public Schools will operate on a 180-day instructional calendar. Because the length of the instructional day in LCPS exceeds the 5.5 hour minimum, the 15 required “make-up days” are covered in the established school calendar. 3. Loudoun County has had this policy governing the “fixed calendar” since 1990. 4. The fixed calendar means that days missed for inclement weather will not cause truncated vacations, Saturday classes, lengthened school days, or changes in graduation dates. Families are able to set their calendars a full year ahead around the fixed dates.

Dances Loudoun County Public Schools reserves the right to deny entrance to a school dance if the rules, guidelines and expectations of School Board policy are not followed. In addition, students will be asked to leave a dance if their behavior is not acceptable. Students will be expected to abide by any other rules deemed appropriate by the administration and sponsor of the individual school. Rules and expectations for students and their guests at LCPS dances include: • School rules are in force for dances held at the schools or off campus. • Students must adhere to the School Board Alcohol, Drug, Tobacco and E-Cigarette Policy 8240. • Students must adhere to the School Board Weapons Policy §8-32. • No use of inappropriate language. • No fighting or harassing behavior. • No inappropriate dancing. • Those attending dances are expected to wear appropriate attire. It is the responsibility of LCPS students to ensure that their guests understand and adhere to these rules and expectations.

Drugs and Alcohol It is prohibited by law for students to possess, distribute, sell, use, or be under the influence of alcohol or drugs while under school authority, on school property, or at a school-sponsored activity. Students who violate this law will be subject to criminal prosecution as well as school punishment per Policy 8240.

2018–2019 Guide & Directory • www.lcps.org

Policies and Regulations Substance use education is delivered through a collaboration between the Department of Instruction and the Department of Pupil Services in Loudoun County Public Schools. The expectation is that all students will be educated in learning environments that are safe, drug free, and conducive to learning. LCPS Student Assistance Specialists provide substance use prevention education presentations at the secondary level which promote positive alternatives to alcohol and drug use and healthy coping skills. Assessment, consultation, intervention, and referral services are provided by LCPS Student Assistance Specialists.

Mental Health Services The Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) Pupil Services Department will offer expanded mental health support to students during the 2018-19 school year, thanks to budget reallocations and improved staffing standards. Pupil Services will add seven social workers, 17 school counselors and seven psychologists under a plan to enhance staffing standards for all middle schools. Funding for the plan was included in the Superintendent’s Recommended Budget for fiscal year 2019. Part of the funding for the new staffing was achieved through the reallocation of funds. According to Superintendent Eric Williams’ budget presentation to the School Board, the rationale for expansion of the mental health initiative is that it “builds on existing efforts to promote mental wellness and resiliency, increase early detection, provide social and emotional support and encourage help-seeking behavior and access to mental health treatment.” The plan set forth in that budget proposal calls for the creation of “unified” teams in each middle school. These teams will be comprised of psychologists, social workers and school counselors in order to enhance and better coordinate mental health services and supports. With the improved staffing, Pupil Services has outlined an ambitious plan of work for the coming year. It will host and conduct the second annual Mental Health and Wellness Conference and offer a parent series on various mental health topics throughout the 28

Loudoun County Public Schools

Policies and Regulations school year. It intends to increase school-based mental health training, supports and interventions, including an expansion of student-led groups to improve strength-based messaging to address important social issues in our school communities. Finally, Pupil Services hopes to increase collaboration with a number of community agencies, including: • Loudoun County Mental Health, Substance Abuse and Developmental Services • Loudoun County Community Services Board • Domestic Abuse Response Team • Loudoun County Youth Resiliency Steering Committee • Gang Resistance and Intervention Team • Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office • Drug Enforcement Agency • Commission on Suicide Awareness and Prevention

Medication in School When possible, all medicine should be administered to students at home, per School Board Policy §8-53. If a student must take prescription medicine at school, the medication will be administered by the school nurse, health clinic specialist, the principal or the principal’s designee. Non-prescription medicine may be taken by students only under the supervision of the school nurse, health clinic specialist, principal or the principal’s designee. All medicine must be brought to school by the parent/guardian unless the student has a Physician’s Order to carry and/or selfadminister. If the student has a Physician’s Order the student may transport insulin and/or emergency medicine including Glucagon, epinephrine auto-injectors and rescue inhalers. All Medicine must be in the original, labeled container.

Child Abuse and Neglect Virginia law requires school employees to report suspected cases of child abuse or neglect to the Department of Social Services. This law provides immunity from civil or criminal liability in connection with these reports, unless malicious intent is proved.

Policies and Regulations

Rights of 18-Year-Olds Since students 18 or older have many of the legal rights and responsibilities of adults, these students may act in place of their parents in some instances where parental permission is required of younger students; 18-year-olds may provide their own excuses for school absences and do not need permission for school trips.

Emergency Procedures During A Violent Intruder Incident In the unlikely event of a violent intruder, LCPS teachers and administrators have received training in the concepts of Run-HideFight, the fundamentals of critical tactical thinking, and factors to consider in the decision-making process during a violent intruder incident. Students will follow their teacher's instructions, or those of the adult in charge, during an emergency as to whether to lockdown or evacuate. “Run-Hide-Fight” is the “best practice” recommended by law enforcement and security experts; including: the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office, the Department of Homeland Security, and 54 federal departments and agencies comprising the Interagency Safety Committee. If a School is in the midst of an emergency, Parents and relatives listed for contact will be notified via email by BlackboardConnect and Loudoun Alert. Should the school be evacuated, a reunification site will be identified and communicated. Law Enforcement and Fire/Rescue personnel will establish a perimeter and restrict all access to the school. LCPS will continue to update parents on conditions.
