We know a federal government shutdown can bring stress and uncertainty for many in our community. The AlexandriaVAGov has gathered resources to help support our students and their families during this time. Visit their website to find helpful information: acps.cc/46OmiMu

The ongoing federal government shutdown may delay paychecks, close federal offices, and affect some federal programs. The City of Alexandria is here to help. Call 311 or visit alexandriava.gov/FederalShutdown for support with food, housing, childcare, and more.

This week the heart was passed to Ms.Hatcher our 6th grade team lead who is one of our history teachers. She has lead a spin cycle club, tutored for the Extended Learing Program, and is currently one of the Student Government Advisors. #ACPSHeartWork #PasstheHeartACPS

As the federal government shutdown continues, there is currently no impact to City of Alexandria services. Find more information about City resources and support at alexandriava.gov/FederalShutdown.
