Dear Lake Anne Family,
It seems that the Weekly Wave that was sent yesterday was extremely delayed and had information from the last school year. We apologize for the late delivery and the incorrect information. Please see the updated Weekly Wave message below. Additional information has also been added.
We look forward to seeing you at our Open House on Thursday, August 15, 2024 from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM and Mural Ribbon Cutting Ceremony from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Our final Beach Book-In will also take place during this time. While you are there, be sure to enjoy Popsicles on the Playground with our amazing Parent Teacher Association (PTA).
You will receive your child’s teacher name and classroom information on Wednesday, August 14th via an eNotify email message.
We’d like to publicly thank our incredible custodial team for their tireless efforts to ensure our building is ready to welcome back our dolphins, staff, and families. Their dedication and hard work do not go unnoticed. We are grateful for their dedication and commitment to making Lake Anne a great place to learn and work.
Thank you for your continued support and involvement in our Dolphin Family. Together, we will make this school year the best one yet!

To ensure an excellent education and address individual student needs, teachers require dedicated planning time. This includes time for lesson preparation, professional development, and collaboration with colleagues.
In response, FCPS has scheduled seven three-hour early release days (Mondays) for elementary students during the 2024-25 school year.
Early release Mondays are planned for elementary schools in the following pyramids: Herndon, Langley, Madison, Marshall, McLean, South Lakes, Centreville, Chantilly, Fairfax, Oakton, Robinson, and Westfield.
Lake Anne will release at 1:05 PM on these dates:
- September 23
- October 28
- November 25
- February 24
- March 17
- April 28
- May 19
The Online Verification Update (OVU) packet allows parents to review and update phone numbers, emergency contacts, and health information (such as health conditions and immunizations) for students in grades PS/HS and kindergarten through 12th grade. The enrolling parent will be able to access OVU through their SIS ParentVUE account.
*The enrolling parent is the natural or adoptive parent or legal guardian with whom the student lives the preponderance of the school week and who enrolled the student in school. (See Regulation 2240) Forms can be located in the Back to School packets and on the General Registration Forms page.
The Online Verification/Update packet has been developed as an optional tool, specifically available to our zoned schools and Thomas Jefferson High School. Parents/Guardians can continue to use traditional paper forms to submit changes to the schools.
The enrolling parent must have an active SIS ParentVUE Account to access and complete the OVU packet.
Parents can obtain an activation key letter to activate their SIS ParentVUE account by contacting their child’s school or by submitting a Parent Support Request form (select “SIS Parent” in the Application dropdown and “Account Activation” from the Inquiry dropdown) for assistance with this process.
Important: Do not use the OVU packet if your address has changed or if you moved to another FCPS school. Contact the current school directly to complete address updates or to withdraw and transfer your student to the new school.
We’re excited to welcome our newest Lake Anne Elementary Dolphins for the upcoming school year! A child may enter kindergarten for this coming school year if they turn five on or before September 30, 2024.
If you have not registered your child, we are accepting registrations for all rising kindergarteners and new students. Please stop by the office or contact Makenzy O’Flynn, our Student Information Assistant, at mtoflynn@fcps.edu or by phone at 703-326-3500 to schedule an appointment.
We know you are eager to know the name of your child’s teacher! You will receive their teacher's name and classroom information on Wednesday, August 14th via an eNotify email message.
We look forward to welcoming you and your child to Lake Anne Elementary for the 2024- 2025 school year!
Our teachers have prepared a list of supplies that your child will need for school. To review our school supply lists, please click here. You may shop for these items and bring them with you to Open House on Thursday, August 15th. Families who ordered supply kits through the PTA can pick them up from the cafeteria during Open House.
As of October 31, 2022 approximately 34 percent of students in FCPS qualify for free and reduced-price meals. The prices for paid breakfast and lunch are determined by the School Board and the price of reduced-price meals are established by the federal government.
For more information about Free and Reduced-Priced Meal applications, please click the following link. Interested families are encouraged to submit the Free and Reduced-Priced Meal application before the first day of the 2024-2025 school year. The free and reduced-price meals application includes an online option for parents to submit the information electronically for faster processing.
If you have children eligible for the federal Free and Reduced-Price Meals program, they may also be eligible to participate in other Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) fee-based programs without paying a fee or by paying a reduced fee. You are also eligible to receive information about scholarships, classes, and services that are provided by agencies and organizations other than FCPS.
