About Alexandria City VA Public Schools

MISSION

Ensure success by inspiring students and addressing barriers to learning. See the ACPS 2025 Strategic Plan for our division-wide goals.

Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) serves more than 15,000 students who hail from more than 114 countries and speak 119 languages. ACPS has 18 schools, including two middle schools, two K-8 schools, one pre-K school, and the internationally recognized T.C. Williams High School. ACPS is committed to ensuring that each and every student succeeds.

ACPS is about equity, empowerment, and inspiring students to thrive.

ACPS places racial equity at the center of everything that we do as a school division. This challenges us to ensure our students are engaged in classroom instruction and have access to the educational resources needed to enhance their learning experiences. We will ensure that our schools are a safe, friendly, and welcoming environment for all. We set clear division-wide priorities and programs to address opportunity and achievement gaps as well as make sure that all students graduate ready for college, careers, and life. Our vision is big and bold, and the potential is enormous.
