Summer Meet Up

School and district leaders from AACPS represented our community with pride at the IB Global Conference in New Orleans, leading engaging and informative sessions for an international audience of educators.

AACPS teams shared innovative strategies for instructional planning during times of change, offering tools and insights to help educators adapt and lead with purpose. They also highlighted the impact of College and Career Readiness programs, emphasizing how these are being used to promote access, opportunity, and real-world preparedness for every student.

This work reflects the power of collaboration and a shared commitment to student success. We thank our teams for inspiring peers across the globe and bringing valuable insights back to our AACPS community.

The Division of Specialized Instruction and Early Intervention Services and our amazing bus attendants recently spent time doing just that by reviewing safety protocols for students. #BelongGrowSucceed #AACPSFamily
