Arlington Public Schools will not be granting an early release to students today. However, the school system is canceling all after-school and evening activities due to the snow.

If students are disappointed about not going home early, they can take solace in the fact that the school board is in the same boat. Tonight’s school board meeting will be held as scheduled.

Unlike Arlington, a number of local school systems including Fairfax and Loudoun Counties are closing two hours early today.

Arlington students are set to return to school this morning after enjoying a snowy, week-long reprieve from classes.

Arlington Public Schools are opening on a two-hour delay today due to continued concerns about road and sidewalk conditions. Over the weekend, the county urged property owners to clear sidewalks so students could safely walk to and from school.
