What’s Happening in APS
In this week’s episode, #digitalAPS features a countywide Summer Laureate program held at Arlington Traditional School this summer. Volunteers are an important asset who generously contribute their time and resources to schools. APS welcomes the community’s support; learn more about how you can get involved in volunteering with us! In this week’s episode of Snapshots, Superintendent Dr. Pat Murphy talks with Drew Model School students and staff about the school’s Innovation Academy. Earlier this week, the National Merit Scholarship Program announced that 17 Arlington students are semifinalists in the 62nd annual National Merit Scholarship Competition. For the second year in a row, all APS schools were fully accredited by the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE).
