2020-21 School Year Calendar

Current Stage of Reopening: Stage 3

On November 9, ACPS progressed from Stage 2 to Stage 3, which expands in-person access to certain students in Grades 4-12 and provides a hybrid learning option (including two days per week of face-to-face instruction) for all students in Grades PK-3. For details about our stages of returning to school, including the transition between stages, visit our Stages of Returning web page.
