Dear Lake Anne Families,
As we prepare for the first day of school on Monday, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for our Open House and Water and Warmth mural ribbon cutting ceremony. Your presence and support made the event truly special and set a positive tone for the year ahead.
Lake Anne teachers and staff are excited to welcome our Dolphins back and to embark on a fantastic school year together. We are committed to providing a nurturing and dynamic learning environment where each student can thrive.

Wishing you all a restful weekend and looking forward to seeing everyone on the first day of school!
Mrs. Jill D. Stewart, Principal

We want to make sure that your child gets home safely and in a timely manner. If you haven't let their teacher know if they are a walker, car rider, or bus rider, please notify the main office no later than 10:30 on Monday, August 19, 2024.
On Monday, your child will come home with a blue and white folder. Please review the information in the folder and return the appropriate forms to your child's teacher no later than Friday, August 23rd.
The folder is for you to keep at home and includes information regarding arrival and dismissal times, policy information and Lake Anne's phone numbers.
Please check with your healthcare provider as soon as possible to make sure your child is up-to-date on the immunizations required by the state of Virginia. Starting Monday, September 30, students who have not provided proof of immunization will not be allowed to attend school.
You can check your child’s immunization compliance and submit their immunization record in SIS ParentVUE. Records may also be delivered to a school’s front office.
If your child needs a vaccine, please make an appointment with your healthcare provider, visit the Fairfax County Health Department website for a list of child immunization clinics, or access other local services. If needed, families may also provide other immunization documentation including a healthcare provider’s written statement of a permanent or temporary medical exemption or a notarized Religious Exemption Form.
Find more information on immunizations on the FCPS website.
Keeping cell phones off during the school day helps students focus and learn. It also boosts positive social behavior. Review FCPS’ cell phone expectations by grade level with your child and help keep our classrooms free of distractions! If you need to reach your child during the school day, please call our 703-326-3500.
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.
Fairfax County Public Schools wants all parents and caregivers to understand its policies regarding surveys, records, curriculum, privacy, and related rights.
In its Annual Notice of Survey, Records, Curriculum, Privacy, and Related Rights and Opt-Out Forms (Annual Notice), FCPS provides explanations of the rights listed above as well as forms that may be used to exercise opt-out choices. Two versions of the Annual Notice are available: a grades K-8 version and a grades 9-12 version. Parents/caregivers with children at different grade levels should read each applicable version of the Annual Notice, because the notices and opt-out rights vary depending on the student’s grade level.
Get more information and view the 2024-25 Opt-Out Booklets.
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.
