Friday marked the return of teachers to school buildings and preparations for the 2025-26 school year immediately got into full swing with team building activities, content meetings and the start of classrom setup. Thanks to everyone working so hard to make this a great school year. Thanks as well to our PTAs and other parent groups who provided welcome-back breakfasts or lunches for school staffs. Here's just some of the work that went on as the stretch run began. #BelongGrowSucceed #AACPSFamily #AACPSBack2Awesome

The “Belong” in #BelongGrowSucceed applies to every student, including those with disabilities. That commitment was the focus of the Embracing Differences: This is Me conference at Severn Run High School. Educators and staff had the opportunity to hear from Jordyn Zimmerman, a passionate educator and disability advocate with autism, and participate in a variety of targeted breakout sessions. The event also featured Chesapeake High School graduate Adriana Dorsey, who shared heartfelt reflections on the individuals who supported her journey, as well as remarks from Superintendent of Schools Dr. Mark Bedell. #AACPSFamily #OurStory
