WOLF WEEKLY
September 7, 2025

Good evening Lake Ridge Middle School Parents/Guardians-   

LOCKDOWN DRILL
This week, students will once again be participating in a lockdown drill which will teach them what to do in the event of a real lockdown situation.  This is just a drill.

EARLY DISMISSALS
We would like to remind parents of a few guidelines regarding early dismissals. 

  • Early dismissals end at 2:30 p.m. each day. If you need your student early, you’ll need to arrive at the school before 2:30 p.m. 
  • You must have a picture ID with you (pictures of your ID on your phone are not sufficient).
  • Upon your arrival and verification that you are listed as an authorized pickup person, we will call the student to the office. We cannot call students prior to your arrival.

WELCOME BACK DANCE
Our first school dance of the year is being held on Friday, September 12 from 3-5pm.  Students can pickup permission slips, during lunches, on Wednesday.  Tickets can be purchased, during lunches, on Thursday and Friday.  A signed permission slip is required to purchase a ticket and no tickets will be sold after 1:35 p.m. on Friday, September 12.  We will have designated areas for students to leave their backpacks during the dance.
