Students and staff - per state requirements, we read this announcement the first day of each semester: As each of you should be aware, the Commonwealth of Virginia has established that we will begin each school day with one minute of silence. Accordingly, it is important that each of us understands our rights and responsibilities under this law. The words of the law say in part: In order that the right of every pupil to the free exercise of religion be guaranteed within the schools… (and) subject to the least possible pressure from the Commonwealth…, the school board of each school division shall establish the daily observance of one minute of silence in each classroom… During… (the) one-minute period of silence…each pupil may, in the exercise of his or her individual choice, meditate, pray, or engage in any other silent activity that does not interfere with, distract, or impede other pupils in the… exercise of (their) individual choice. Thank you.
At the beginning of each school year, read the Equity Statement: LCPS Commitment to Equity is our division-wide commitment to equity and opportunity, and aligns with preparing all students to pursue and achieve their full potential. In the newly adopted One LCPS: 2027 Strategic Plan for Excellence, equity and opportunity represent one of the six core values foundational to our strategic goals and actions. LCPS Commitment to Equity:
LCPS centers equity as one of its foundational core values. For our community, equity means being committed to providing a safe, supportive, inclusive, affirming, and respectful environment for each student and staff member that fosters success, growth, and academic rigor. The cultivation of this environment requires us to reject and condemn the use of hate speech, racial slurs, antisemitism, and any action or behavior that discriminates based on race, ethnicity, national origin, gender identity, sexual orientation, gender expression, socio-economic status, religion, ability, or other cultural identities or expression. Such non inclusive speech, behavior, and actions do not reflect who we are as a learning community. We embrace and value the unique identities, backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and needs of each student and employee. Celebrating our diversity is important and helps define us as a school division. Demonstrating the courage to address inequities and remove barriers represents an integral part of our collective effort towards excellence in education. Equity is the vehicle that leads to greater access, opportunity, and equality, so that each student is empowered to make meaningful contributions to the world.
