Good afternoon parents. We have a summer update for you!
Skyward opens on Monday, July 17th for 1st through 4th grade to view who the homeroom teacher will be for the 2023-2024 school year. We are mailing kindergarten letters today. To access Skyward you will need your username and password. 1st through 4th grade parents will go to https://ees.loudoncounty.org , click “Parents”, and click “Skyward Parent Portal”. When Skyward opens you will type in your login and password. If you don’t know your credentials, click “forget your login/password” and follow the steps. If you are still unable to access your login and password, after trying to reset your account, you can email baesslera@loudoncounty.org, housleya@loudoncounty.org, or bevinss@loudoncounty.org for assistance. Again, you will not be able to access the portal until Monday, July 17th.
We look forward to seeing you and your child on Monday, July 31st for registration. Your homeroom teacher will call you the week of July 24th to set up a time for you to come on registration day. Registration day is for all students, even if you attend our PreK program, Kindergarten Round-up, or were previously enrolled in our school. You are still expected to attend on registration day to complete the yearly registration packet. We are scheduling appointment times this year for registration day so we can monitor the number of families in our building and have plenty of time for you to meet the teacher. We have also found this is a great opportunity to bring your child’s school supplies too. The school supply list or “wish list” as we like to refer to it can be found on our school website.
We will be scanning state issued identification into our Raptor system so each adult will need to bring their driver’s license so a badge can be printed. Each guardian will then be loaded into our Raptor system and anytime you visit we will be able to pull your information quickly. Please be patient with us as we issue everyone’s badges. We will not be doing pre-registration for badges on registration day so we can get guardians state issued identification loaded into our Raptor system.
We will use a stagger start for 1st – 4th grades. August 2nd will be for A through K and August 3rd for L through Z. If you child is in Prek or Kindergarten your letters will have more information regarding your stagger start. Please keep in mind, if you would like to walk your child to class, you may walk them to their classroom on August 2nd, 3rd, and 4th at 7:45. You will need to stop by the front office and a visitors’ badge will be printed before being allowed through the secured entrance door. This will only be allowed on August 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Starting on August 7th all students should be dropped off in the car/bus line and walk inside independently.
Our new website/app has “Welcome Letters” from the teachers, supply list, and an updated calendar of events for August. Make sure to download the app today from the app store so you can stay informed with updates and alerts.
