Measuring What Matters

The mission of Alexandria City Public Schools is to ensure that Every Student Succeeds. But what does success look like?Measuring What Matters is a publication that shares the incredible talent our young people have that may manifest in many different ways. Standards of Learning test data is only one measure of a student's academic success. Opportunities and successes outside of the classroom are just as important as the experience inside of the classroom. In Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS), we pride ourselves on preparing our students for the world, whether it is college, a career or joining the military. Every child deserves an opportunity to be supported and engaged in a high-quality learning environment. And every child deserves to have their successes acknowledged.
