This June, Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) graduated 6,932 seniors. Of those, nearly 75% received an advanced diploma, nearly 24% a standard diploma and just over 1% an applied studies diploma.
Nearly 70% of graduates reported that they will attend a four-year college in the fall (down 4% from last year’s graduating class), while over 17% will attend a two-year school (up 2% from last year’s graduating class).
While going to college was the most common choice for graduates, other plans included:
356 students (5.1%) entering the workforce
228 students (3.3%) other educational plans
137 students (2%) entering military service
157 students (2.3%) taking a gap year
“We are incredibly proud of the LCPS Class of 2025—not only for their academic accomplishments, but for the resilience, leadership, and compassion they’ve shown throughout their time with us,” said Superintendent Aaron Spence. “This group of graduates is well-prepared to take on the future, thanks to the opportunities they’ve embraced and the support of a school division that believes in them. We know they will make a difference—for themselves, their communities, and the world.”
LCPS graduates made their mark in and out of the classroom. These achievements—spanning cybersecurity, skilled trades, athletics, and the arts—underscore the Class of 2025’s remarkable drive and versatility. From state championships and national showcases to leadership at elite cybersecurity events and scientific research symposiums, LCPS graduates have built strong foundations for future success in their communities and beyond.
