This Week @ Riverside
Home of the Rams!
Hello Riverside,
Use the LCPS Final Grade Calculator App (link above) to calculate the final grade for any middle or high school class based on the three options defined on the LCPS Continuity of Education Plan page in the Final Grade section.
If you have questions about scores in the Grade Book or on a Report Card, contact the teacher for that class

I am excited to announce that students enrolled in Geospatial Science have their final projects currently on display in the JMU Geospatial Science Virtual Symposium found on the LCPS Virtual Independent Science Research and Geospatial Science Symposia website. I hope that you will take a few minutes to view the outstanding work these students were able to complete despite the difficult time we find ourselves in.
Geospatial Science is a dual-enrollment course through James Madison University’s (JMU) Geospatial Semester. Students who take this course are high school juniors and seniors representing 10 of Loudoun’s high schools. Since 2006, the Geospatial Science course has provided an opportunity for students to learn emerging workforce skills in the fields of Geospatial Information Systems, Remote Sensing, and Global Positioning Systems. Development of these skills require students to think critically, problem-solve, collaborate with peers, and communicate their results with their peers and the community. The JMU Geospatial Semester program is one of only a few in the country that provide high school students with this opportunity. Alumni from this program have gone on to receive summer internships, college degrees in GIS, careers utilizing GIS, and job assignments in the military.
