Background:

ACPS is moving forward in our efforts to realize the mission and vision established in ACPS 2025 strategic plan, and to prepare every student to have the skills necessary to be successful in the 21st century. We are guided by a commitment to providing equitable access to opportunities, and achieving academic excellence, where every school is high performing and every student succeeds. The adoption of the Combined-Funds Budget is an annual commitment to programs and activities for Alexandria City Public Schools.
On Thursday, January 5, 2023, the Superintendent proposed the FY 2024 Combined-Funds Budget for School Board consideration. This was followed by a series of work sessions, public hearings and staff responses to School Board questions.
On February 1, School Board Members submitted their Add/Delete proposals. On February 6, Members will co-sponsor the Add/Deletes of other Board Members. On February 9, the first Add/Delete work session was held and the School Board accepted the Superintendent’s proposed adjustments to the FY 2024 Combined Funds Budget.
