Summer School General Information and Registration Deadlines

 
Arlington Public Schools will provide a variety of summer programs for students in grades Pre-K through 12 during summer 2010. Most classes run from July 12 – August 12 for elementary and middle school students, and from July 12 – August 19 for high school students. A registration fee of $100.00 and tuition (if applicable) are due at the time of registration as explained in the Summer School Catalog which can be viewed by following the link at the top of this page. Course catalogs will be distributed to all APS schools at the end of February. Registration forms and applications for reduced fees (based on family income) are included in the course catalog. Students who are not residents of Arlington County are eligible to attend some but not all classes. Out-of-county fees apply (see catalog for details).
