APS to Open on a Two Hour Delay

After a five-day weekend, Arlington public school students will be going back to class Thursday, albeit on a two hour delay.

“All Arlington Public Schools will open two hours late on Thursday,” according to Arlington Public Schools Director of Communication Jennifer Harris. “The Extended Day program will also open two hours late. All APS offices will open on time. Morning field trips will be cancelled.”

Schools were closed Monday for the Martin Luther King, Jr. Day holiday, on Tuesday for a teacher work day, and on Wednesday due to snow-covered streets and the frigid temperatures.
