MOVING OVER THE SUMMER?
If you are planning to move over the summer, please fill out a form using this link before May 30th. This allows our Registrar time to work on updating your data and getting student records sent to your new school. Contact Ms. Gouro at [email protected] if you have any questions.

DEVICE COLLECTION
End of the year device collection is fast approaching. Students need to plan on turning in their PWCS laptop, sleeve, and charger on the following days:

  • Wednesday 6/4 - 8th grade collection
  • Thursday 6/5 - 7th grade collection

Any student missing their PWCS asset tag or with damage to their device should submit a help ticket. If students have lost their laptop sleeve or charger they can bring cash (exact amount only) or check (made out to LRMS):

  • Missing laptop sleeve - $20
  • Missing charger - $25

Rising 6th and 7th Grade Families, Prince William County Public Schools will be moving to a new way of turning in your Athletic Physical and completing other components in order to try out for an Athletic Team. We are very excited to announce our partnership with Arbiter Sports which allows all families to turn in their Athletic Physicals completely online, "Tiny Scanner" or any other free application can be used to create a PDF with your phone. Families will create a Free Account, one time and one per family, to upload all documents and even select which Athletic Teams they would like to try out for! You are able to update your account throughout the school year if your student decides to try out for another team. Please head to our school website (lakeridgems.pwcs.edu/our_school/sports_information) for a step-by-step guide on how to create your account and begin the process.

Virginia High School League and the State of Virginia have recently passed a new law/bill that states all Athletic Physicals are valid for 14 months from the date of the physical. Due to this change, Virginia High School League has required an updated version of the Athletic Physical to be uploaded to Arbiter Sports, it will notify you as the 14-month mark approaches. This is the only version we are allowed to accept, please DO NOT use former versions of the Athletic Physical. The older versions have 4 pages to complete while the new version has 6 pages to complete. We understand this is a new process for everyone, please be proactive and make the free account now and immediately upload your Physical after completion this summer.

This is new to all participants, please be patient as we work through some of the preliminary issues!

 

Schools are closed Monday, in honor of Memorial day, Tuesday will be an “A” day.
