Dear Arlington Community,
Arlington Public Schools will be closed Tuesday, February 24th, 2026.
After consulting with Town colleagues regarding their efforts overnight and during the day, it is apparent that we cannot guarantee safe conditions for walkers, drivers, and drop-off tomorrow morning. Crews require more time to clear roads and walkways, especially at intersections. All after-school programs and activities are also cancelled on Tuesday to allow for crews to focus on cleanup. We encourage residents to do what they are able tomorrow to clear private walkways or support neighbors to enable a safe return to school on Wednesday.
We know that school cancellations are disruptive to household routines, and we are eager to return to school after the February break. We will follow up with more information about Wednesday tomorrow.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth C. Homan, Ph.D.
Superintendent, Arlington Public Schools
