Good evening Lake Ridge Middle School Parents/Guardians- 

SPIRIT DAYS

As we prepare for our Drama students performance of Annie Jr. we thought it would be fun to have Annie Spirit Days on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.

  • Wednesday – “You’re never fully dressed without a smile”. Wear yellow and get smiling face stickers from staff members.
  • Thursday – “It’s a Hard Knock Life”. Wear red to celebrate the opening of Annie Jr.
  • Friday – “The Sun will come out Tomorrow”. Wear PJ’s to celebrate the upcoming Spring Break.

COURSE SCHEDULING

Our Spring Athletic Season (Baseball, Softball, Girl's Soccer, and Boy's Track) starts Monday, March 18, 2024. Tryouts will run from 3:15 pm to 5:15 pm. Make sure that you have a 2023-2024 Athletic Physical and Concussion Training on file with Mr. Larson before trying out. If you turned in an Athletic Physical and Concussion Training earlier this school year, you would not need to resubmit a new one.

If a student was Academically Ineligible due to 2nd Quarter Report Card Marks, they will not be eligible to try out for Spring Sports. Coaches will be checking the Ineligible Roster before heading out for tryouts. 

Weather can become a factor during the Spring Season with rain and heat. The only communication that will be shared is if tryouts are being canceled for the day, otherwise, plan for tryouts to be run as scheduled. We will make the final call for any cancellations between 1:30 pm and 2 pm. Thank you! 

On June 1st, 2024 from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at the Kelly Leadership Center, the Student Athletic and Activities Office is running a Sports Fair that offers information about all the Athletic Opportunities that are offered in Prince William County. Coaches and athletes will be offering information about the programs offered and providing information regarding sign-ups and Athletic Physicals/Concussion Training for the High Schools. (It is different compared to Middle School)

8th Grade Athletes: As we are approaching the Spring Season, multiple High School Sports are starting their Spring Off-Season Workouts/Conditioning, Athletes are NOT ALLOWED to participate in these workouts/conditioning sessions until June 8th, 2024. This is a VHSL Regulation and High School Activity Coordinators are aware/monitoring this.  

Monday will be a “B” day.
