Arlington’s World Languages, Diversity and Cultures annual celebration, held at the Career Center, recently showcased the eight languages offered across APS.

As we approach Spring Break, I will devote my upcoming weekly messages to providing information about student progress at the midyear point and how we are working to meet the needs of all learners.  

As we begin a new month, I want to provide you with an update on Summer School, reminders about Parent-Teacher Conferences, Social-Emotional Learning, and upcoming March recognitions.

As part of our commitment to student safety and well-being, I want to provide updates on our continuing focus on substance abuse and opioids, as well as our division-wide efforts to strengthen culturally relevant and inclusive instructional activities. We appreciate the support and partnership of parents, guardians and community partners in these efforts.
