Anne Arundel County Public Schools is monitoring the weather forecast for potential inclement weather Sunday into Monday. As a reminder, our school district has used all three of the inclement weather days built into the calendar. Should another inclement weather day be needed on Monday or any other future day, it is our intention to switch to virtual learning instructional schedules. This would avoid adding a day to the end of the school year.

Students are being reminded today to take their assigned devices home with them and keep them charged through the weekend.

Virtual learning schedules, which have been updated since the last storm, can be found at www.aacps.org/studentschedules.
