[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]At the last SB meeting, Dr. Durán said that APS was ranked #2 for best school district in VA (below Fall Church). It also had at least two highly ranked high schools.[/quote]

There is no way he said this. Do a little homework into school districts in the state. APS is not at the top.[/quote]

Arlington Public Schools were ranked #1 Best Place to Teach and #2 Best School Division in Virginia in the 2023 Best Schools and Districts Rankings by [b]Niche, a company specializing in K-12 school data and rankings[/b]. Niche also ranked APS #9 out of the Commonwealth’s 132 school divisions for Districts with the Best Teachers in Virginia.

“I am proud of our staff, students and community for making APS one of Virginia’s best school systems, according to Niche’s ranking,” said APS Superintendent Dr. Francisco Durán. “We are fortunate to have excellent teachers and staff who are devoted to serving the diverse needs of our students. I am not surprised to see our incredible teachers ranked among the best in the Commonwealth. Every accolade that we earn is the result of their talent and dedication to student success.”

Niche gives schools and school divisions a grade overall and on academics, diversity, teachers, and health and safety, among other categories.

APS earned an “A+” overall, and an A in academics, teachers, clubs and activities, college preparation, health and safety, sports and resources and facilities. Many APS schools also earned top rankings and excellent grades for quality.
