Since the joint committee last met in April, the Board of Supervisors approved the commission permit to construct the Dulles North High School HS fourteen. and elementary school on land near Watson Mountain Middle School along with um Along with the associated five thousand seat stadion. The Board of Supervisors also voted to make all local buses in Loudoun County fare free beginning on january first, twenty twenty five. The initiative to have fair fee buses began in the joint committee with Supervisor Briskman bringing forth, I'm sorry, Vice Chair Brisman bringing forth an item to allow all LCPS students to use their IDs to ride the buses for free.

Now through that work, all local bus users in Loudoun will be able to ride for free.

I encourage both supervisors and school board members to make sure you're communicating with each other regarding student generation, capacity, and attendance zones in your respective districts. Finally, I want to thank the school board and superintendent for continuing to invite supervisors. advisors to attend graduation for L C P S high schools. I had the pleasure of attending the graduation uh ceremony for the academies of Louden. Two weeks ago and will be at Riverside High School tonight.
