Students at Potowmack Elementary School participated in their first Kindness Fair, according to Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS). The event aimed to encourage positive interactions among students.

LCPS also reported that more than 100 business and community leaders attended a recent roundtable focused on expanding career and technical education programs. The discussion centered on plans to broaden opportunities for students in these fields.

The school division reminded families about a new policy regarding appropriate use of personal devices by students. The guidance is intended to help maintain a productive learning environment.

Additionally, LCPS announced that community members are invited to suggest names for the district’s newest high school, which is under construction in the Dulles North region.

Further details on these topics can be found in this week’s edition of the LCPS Letter.
