In August, Arlington Public Schools mailed letters to families regarding your child’s school bus including the bus ride to/from school, including instructions on your child's bus route number and how to find that route number on a bus. This will help your child find the right bus.
In some areas of the district, neighborhoods are also serviced by buses from neighboring school districts. Please make sure your child’s bus says Arlington School District No. 16 and not some other district’s name. This will help ensure that your child gets on the correct bus.
Thanks to Arlington Mayor Don Vanney, Arlington Police Commander Mike Gilbert, and Arlington Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Chrys Sweeting for joining students and driver Cathy Pater on a bus ride to their school! Have a great school year!
New paraeducators, child nutrition workers, school nurses, secretaries and an administrative assistant attended an orientation today at the District Office. Welcome to Arlington Public Schools!

It was exciting to participate in Arlington’s National Night Out last night. We had a great time talking with families who stopped by our booth to get back-to-school information!
This summer, 18 high school students are gaining hands-on experience through internships at a variety of local businesses and organizations. Their opportunities are diverse—ranging from learning the work of a lineman and understanding airport operations to collecting environmental data in our local wetlands. Some students are exploring video production, while others are stepping into the daily life of an IT professional.
In addition to building career skills, students are also connecting with their community—working side-by-side with local leaders, learning how to collaborate effectively, and even helping grow fresh food to support local families. By the end of the summer, each intern will walk away with valuable insight into a career path, stronger communication and teamwork skills, a deeper connection to their community, and 0.5 credits toward graduation.
If you are a business wanting to learn more about hosting an intern or a student hoping to gain career knowledge, contact Lisa Rodino, School to Work Coordinator at aci@asd.wednet.edu
