  • APS announces make up plans for inclement weather 

    APS has approved a comprehensive plan allowing students to make up instructional time missed due to inclement weather.  A district wide plan has been developed to increase the time and opportunity for students to receive critical instruction lost during the six days of inclement weather. The district’s professional learning day scheduled for March 17 will be a regular instructional day.  The district’s original testing window for administering the CRCT to students in grades 3-8 will shift forward one week, with the testing beginning April 23 and ending May 1.

    The remainder of the APS calendar, including spring break, the graduation schedule, and the last day of school will not change.  Spring break will remain April 7-11 and graduations are scheduled May 23-25.  The last day of school for traditional APS students remains May 23, and the last day for year-round students is May 30.
