Large, bold green text on the right side reads "LVHS School Year Opening Events 26-27," with a red circle drawn around dates on the faint background grid.

Hello Vikings, 

As we prepare for school opening and welcoming our community back, we wanted to share  some important dates and events to start the 2026-2027 school year, beginning with our first event on August 12, 2026. 

Save the Date August 12, 2026

On this date we host two different events to support students and families with the transition back to school. Please see the descriptions below for the events and times.

Freshmen and New LVHS Student Orientation

August 12, 2026

3:30 - 4:00 p.m.

We are excited to welcome 9th grade and new LVHS students to Valley! At this event, students will receive their class schedule, tour the building, and learn about LVHS norms and expectations prior to classes starting on August 17. Additionally, we will offer a parent session at 3:30 p.m. in the auditorium – separate from the student orientation. Doors near the auditorium entrance will open at 3:15 pm for parents and students.

LVHS 2026-2027 Open House

August 12, 2026

4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

This event is for all students and families in grades 9-12. At the event, students will get their class schedules, walk their schedule, and briefly meet their teachers. This is a great opportunity for students and families to receive a brief introduction of what they can expect in their courses during the 2026 - 2027 school year through teacher one-pager handouts. 

First Day of School for Students

The first day of school for students is August 17, 2026. 

Viking Fest

August 21, 2026

During the School Day

Viking Fest will be incorporated during the day to allow students to explore different clubs and student organizations to participate in during the school year.

Fall Parent Conference Night

September 24, 2026

Parents can schedule meetings with specific details. More information will be shared as the date gets closer. 

Look for additional information about school opening as we get closer to the first day of school.

We look forward to seeing you!

Sincerely, 

Loudoun Valley High School
