Clear Bag Policy & Metal Detectors at LCPS Varsity Football Games
Students, staff and visitors may notice new security measures across Loudoun County Public Schools. These efforts reflect the division’s continued commitment to creating safe, welcoming environments for all. While not every element of the LCPS security plan is shared publicly for safety reasons, two visible changes will take effect beginning in fall 2025 at home varsity football games.Clear Bag Policy: Only clear bags will be permitted through the ticket gates at any LCPS high school hosting a varsity football game. This change aligns LCPS with safety practices already in place in neighboring school divisions and at many collegiate and professional venues.To support this transition, school athletic directors have partnered with booster clubs to offer school-branded clear bags. Families interested in obtaining a personalized bag are encouraged to contact their school’s booster organization.Bag Guidelines:· Must be clear plastic, vinyl or PVC·&nb

VHSL Doctor's Physical-- new law regarding physical date
Riverside parents, Virginia state code/law changed and now allows for VHSL physicals to remain valid for 14 months from the date of the physical. In the past, all physicals expired on June 30 and new ones were required each school year. Now, a physical may carry over from one school year to the next as long as it's not older than 14 months. When parents register their child for sports online (which won't open until mid June), they will be asked to enter the date of the doctor's physical. The Riverside athletic office will verify that date is correct after checking the actual physical paperwork. Parents will receive 30, 60, and 90 day automatic emails to remind you that the physical is set to expire. Please make sure to not allow a physical to expire, as this would cause the athlete to need to stop playing or practicing when the physical expired. There may be a few paperwork challenges and processes to figure out for the athletic of
