About J.L.Simpson Middle School
School History:
The middle school concept in Loudoun County was initiated with the 1971-72 school history. At that time, two new buildings became operational, one in Purcellville, the other in Sterling. Concurrently, in the Leesburg area a modified middle school concept was initiated. Sixth and seventh graders were housed in the old Douglass High School, renamed the Leesburg Middle School. Although the curriculum and basic program were similar throughout the county, it was not until our present building was completed in 1976 that the middle school concept was fully implemented county wide. The new building was named and dedicated J. Lupton Simpson middle School, a fitting and appropriate memorial to a man whose life was education. We are honored to be a part of this memorial to such a fine man and excellent educator.
Middle school is a time of incredible growth and emerging independence for your child. It’s also a time of changing parental involvement in your child’s school life. While you may not be asked to volunteer in a classroom this year, there are still lots of ways your contributions are needed and appreciated. We hope you’ll get involved!
PTO Purpose
The PTO plays an important role in your child’s life in two main ways:
- We partner with the school to provide fun, safe, age-appropriate social activities that help foster a sense of community and support your child as they navigate the sometimes choppy waters of middle school. Events include the 6th grade ice cream social, a 7th grade activity, the 8th grade dance, Winter Blues Blowout, and more!
- We also support the faculty and staff by providing supplemental classroom resources, supporting after-school clubs, and hosting staff appreciation events throughout the year.
