Good evening Lake Ridge Middle School Parents/Guardians-
IPAD USE
We are becoming increasingly concerned about students who are intentionally removing the Mobile Device Management (MDM) profile from their school-issued iPads. This profile is essential for maintaining a safe and secure digital learning environment, including blocking access to inappropriate websites. Students have been explicitly warned that tampering with these settings is a violation of school policy. Please be advised that consequences may be issued if a student is found to have removed or altered the MDM profile. We ask for your support in reinforcing the importance of responsible technology use at home and ensuring that your child’s device remains compliant with school expectations.
BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHTS
- 6th Grade Back to School Night will be on Tuesday, September 9th from 6-7:30 p.m.
- 7th & 8th Grade Back to School Night will be on Thursday, September 11th from 6-7:30 p.m.
ITEM DROP-OFF & FOOD DELIVERY GUIDELINES
To help maintain a focused learning environment and minimize disruptions to instructional time, we kindly ask that students arrive at school with all necessary items for the day. This helps us keep the front office organized and ensures that classroom learning remains uninterrupted. If an item is dropped off during the school day, we will not be calling classrooms to notify students. Instead, students who are expecting a drop-off may check the front office between periods.
Additionally, please note that food deliveries from third-party services (e.g., DoorDash, Grubhub, Uber Eats) are not permitted and will be declined. Parents may personally drop off food for their child if needed.
We appreciate your cooperation and support in helping us protect valuable learning time and maintain a smooth, productive school day.
