ACPS Middle and PreK-8 Schools

I would like to thank you for visiting the middle and PreK-8 schools web page for Alexandria City Public Schools. We hope that you utilize this web page to obtain information pertaining to our middle and PreK-8 schools. Our middle and PreK-8 schools focus on the development of the academic, social, physical and emotional needs of all students. The vision of ACPS is to set the international standard for educational excellence, where all students achieve their potential and actively contribute to our local and global communities.

We provide a holistic education for our middle and PreK-8 school students through exemplary programs such as the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme and Advancement via Individual Determination (AVID). Our small learning communities provide students with personalization, individualization, and opportunities to establish positive relationships with our faculty and staff. Parents, community leaders, teachers, and administrators play an integral part in the development of our young people. We hope that you will support our efforts to provide all students with a positive learning experience that prepares them for success!
