Which arlington elementary schools do early release Wednesdays?

Where does one search for this?
Thanks!

I don't think any of the ESs have early release Wednesdays every week anymore. They all have them periodically (quarterly - related to report cards maybe?). But I think all ESs now have FLES which took away early release Wednesdays.

That is correct. No ES have regular early release Wednesdays. There are 5 countywide early releases for teacher professional development.

Correct. If this is a concern of yours, though, I'd check out the proposed APS calendar for next year. I believe I heard that there will be more early release days next year, and I think I may have also heard about them doing some on Fridays?

ATS still has some. But extended day just goes longer, so if you're using that, there's no impact on your life.

Yea my 5th grader had the most from k-, but then they added Fles to the team schools (ASF, Taylor, Jamestown) and they went away. I did like them when my kids were k & 1 because it was a good break for them.

In later years--they made no sense and PIA to schedule work around.

They all still have some. But none have the weekly ones anymore.
