Allocation of Resources to Achieve Goals and Objectives
This budget recommendation was developed in accordance with direction and guidance from the Arlington
School Committee, and is informed by the following:
The FY27 budgeted amount is agreed to by the Town of Arlington and the Arlington School
Committee based on the school department funding formula. This formula is based on expected town
revenues, student enrollment growth, and an agreed increased percentage for general education and
special education expenses.
Following a highly participatory process, the district adopted new Vision and Mission statements in
2022, along with four Key Priorities. These statements and priorities are drivers of this budget.
The 5-Year APS Strategic Plan was completed and approved in Spring 2023, with three detailed
5-year initiatives outlined under each Key Priority.

School Committee and Superintendent Message and Introduction
Dear Arlington Community,
Five years ago, the Arlington Public Schools community embarked on an endeavor to reimagine the future of our
schools. This process recognized the excellence already present, and placed value on teacher retention, fostering
creativity, and boosting student agency - all values that have a longstanding history in the Arlington community.
The plan and vision for the schools also recognized opportunities for improvement in educational excellence,
early literacy and intervention, and stronger support systems for our diverse student body, especially for those
students and families who have been systematically excluded from opportunities historically and institutionally.
The plan that resulted from these efforts was an ambitious one, and we have spent the past three years
implementing its various charges, all of which have required us to reallocate and reorganize resources in our
annual budget process – with great success. In Fall 2025, Arlington was the largest district in the state to have
recovered to pre-pandemic levels in annual student outcomes reported by the Department of Elementary and
Secondary Education (DESE). We have been grateful throughout our implementation of this work for the support
of the Arlington community, who voted in 2023 to expand APS resources so that we could pay staff
competitively, improve communications and safety systems, and provide more accessibility for all of our
students and families.
As we planned for FY27, we know the schools sharing the impact of the uncertain economic landscape of the
current moment. Nationally, regionally, and locally, costs have risen – we know our families have experienced
the impact of this, as the percentage and number of low-income families sending students to APS every day has
risen from 7.9% to 11.1% since 2020. Within that landscape, revenues (for organizations) and paychecks (for
individuals) have not been able to keep pace with the rising cost of expenses and the understandably high
expectations of families when it comes to their children’s education.
Therefore, we initially brought two proposals for the 2026-27 school year to the Arlington Finance Committee:
one that we will implement if the operating override vote on March 28th was successful, and one that we would
have implemented if the override ballot question fails. Neither scenario expanded upon much-needed resources
in our schools that would enable our strategic work to move forward. Instead, both of the budgets presented
featured significant reductions which will require changes to how our schools go about the complex work of
ensuring that every student feels a sense of belonging, growth, and joy in our schools each day.
We are grateful that on March 28th, 2026, the Arlington community overwhelmingly passed a $14.8M override,
and as a response to the community’s vote of confidence, our commitment to providing an excellent education is
unwavering. We remain proud of what is not reduced in these scenarios: resources for students with disabilities,
for students to have access to support staff, and or for students to receive needed interventions. We preserve
progress in these areas in FY27 with faith that we will be able to continue to do so in the fiscal years to follow.
We developed these budgets with the singular goal of protecting and continuing our improvements to the student
experience and our progress towards closing achievement gaps. As always, we appreciate the steadfast support
of the Arlington School Committee and the Arlington Community, including our staff, students, and families.
Sincerely,
Jeff Thielman, School Committee Chair Dr. Elizabeth C. Homan, Superintendent

FY27 Budget Build Process, Criteria, and Overview
Each year, the budget building process is a collaborative effort and public process that engages the School
Committee, Capital Planning Committee, Long Range Planning Committee, Town and School staff, families,
budget guidelines and budget calendar. For FY27, the district developed two budget scenarios in response to the
need for a Town Operating Override in order to maintain level services. In a series of discussions with Town
Colleagues, the Select Board, and other stakeholders, APS has developed two proposals for FY27:
One for if the Operating Override PASSES with a YES vote (YES on Override Scenario)
One for if the Operating Override FAILS with a NO vote (NO on Override Scenario)
As a result of an affirmative vote in favor of the override on March 28th, this budget document reflects
only the first scenario for Town Meeting consideration. However, in this section we lay out our process
for arriving at both budget scenarios for FY27, the decision-making process that informed proposed
reductions in both scenarios, and the ideals represented in the budget plan that follows.
The Superintendent of Schools is tasked with developing a budget that advances the District according to the
outlined policy objectives and overall district goals. The School Committee is responsible for reviewing and
approving the budget for incorporation with the full Town budget.
In both scenarios, the Arlington Public Schools needed to plan for staffing reductions. This is due to multiple
factors that have contributed to increasing costs for school districts across the State of Massachusetts, that are not
unique to Arlington:
Increasing professional salaries state-wide. The district has pursued competitive compensation as a
priority over the past several years, both as a diversification strategy and because Arlington has been
consistently and historically underresourced in this area, making it increasingly difficult to fill critical
vacancies.
Increasing cost of Special Education Out of District Tuition and Transportation (9% over the past
three fiscal years): Despite decreasing or level OOD enrollment, the increasing cost of tuition has created
cost pressures for the district.
Increasing cost of Goods and Services: like all individuals and organizations, inflation has impacted the
Arlington Public Schools; when allocations do not grow at the rate of expenses, APS must consider
reductions.
Relatively low growth in State and Federal entitlement grants and government Aid: Relative to
expenses, funds that are provided by state and federal agencies have not offset the cost of salaries,
supplies, energy, transportation, and other costs that the district is regulatorily required to provide. For
example, Chapter 70 State Aid is projected to grow by 2.2% for FY27. Similarly, level funding or
sub-2.5% growth in several government entitlement grants over the past several years has limited how
much of the district’s expenses can be charged to those funds, requiring more resources to be budgeted on
the General Fund.
In a typical budget year, the District collects budget proposals from staff, administrators, and other stakeholders,
and those proposals inform what is included in the budget. Because the district must consider reductions
regardless of the override scenario, the School Committee and other community stakeholders were asked to
provide input on how the district should go about prioritizing reduction options for the FY27 school year. Based
on that feedback, we developed the following criteria for determining reductions to staff and operational costs in
both budget scenarios:
1. Stay Strategic: Maintain a steadfast focus on the priorities and goals of the APS Strategic Plan.
This plan was passed by the School Committee in 2022 and commits to providing a high-quality,
engaging, and equitable education that provides opportunities for growth, belonging, and joy. The plan
prioritizes rigorous instruction, competitive compensation, effective and efficient operations, and
Page | 8
community partnership. To the extent possible, reductions should keep these priorities in mind, and we
have avoided reductions that could compromise necessary progress in these areas.
2. Stay Student-Centered: Minimize the impact of reductions on the student experience. It is
impossible for the district to make reductions that do not impact students. Everything from how quickly
overtime is processed to the curriculum materials we purchase is in service of students. However, we
endeavored to start making reduction decisions as far away from roles that directly work with students as
possible. For that reason, reductions are presented as “top-down,” with district-level reductions listed
first.
3. Stay Strong: Distribute reductions throughout the system. A major priority of both budget scenarios
is avoidance of the total elimination of student-facing programming. In listening sessions throughout the
fall and winter, families and staff have shared how much they appreciate the wide range of opportunities
and programs offered by APS. We have worked to sustain programming, even if at a reduced level, in
both budget scenarios. However, if an override does not pass in the coming years, APS will not be able to
avoid elimination of programming for FY28 and the years that follow.
4. Stay Sustainable: Preserve the long-term stability of programming through sustainable reductions.
The district’s focus on competitive compensation of the past many years has meant that an increasing
percentage of the General Fund goes to staff salaries. This criteria meant that we needed to minimize
reductions to operational budgets that support materials, supplies, facilities, and other operational costs,
and focus reductions on the salary side of the budget, so that our excellent staff can be retained in a
competitive job market.
5. Stay Creative: Consider all options, and think outside the box. Finally, the School Committee and
community has made it clear that they expect APS to continue to think creatively about how we go about
reallocating resources and reducing expenses, while allowing for the unique differences in programming
between and across schools and levels to be resourced equitably. Even dramatic adjustments should be on
the table, including actions as significant as closing a school if necessary. Consequently, we have
strategically reorganized and consolidated several roles and functions throughout both scenarios in an
effort to both mitigate the impact of reductions on services, and will continue to do so if more reductions
are necessary.
These five criteria have informed decision-making and discussions throughout the budget process, and have been
helpful when difficult decisions need to be made about which positions will be maintained. In addition to these
criteria, the School Committee and other stakeholders voiced their concerns about elimination of performing arts
programming, resources that support special education staffing and social work, and resources dedicated to
improving literacy instruction and intervention district-wide; this feedback also informed decisions about what to
include in our plan for FY27.
Importance and Design of Stakeholder Engagement in FY27 Budget
Development
Our process for ensuring adherence to these criteria while planning for reductions required significant
engagement with stakeholders across roles. APS’s budget development approach is grounded in a belief that
resource decisions are more effective and more closely aligned with student needs when the people closest to the
work are meaningfully involved. APS staff contribute critical insight into both the short and long-term
implications of any investment or reduction. Drawing perspectives from a wide range of roles and experiences
also helps the district identify patterns, risks, and opportunities that may not otherwise be visible.
Stakeholder engagement for FY27 included three components: stakeholder interviews, budget development
workshops, community forums, and community listening sessions, each of which is described in more detail
below:
Page | 9
Stakeholder Interviews: From September through December 2025, central office administrators
conducted interviews with individuals and groups of administrators, staff, and families using a shared
protocol. These interviews were analyzed in aggregate to identify themes and trends.
Budget Development Workshops: APS convened workshops with principals, directors, coordinators,
and cabinet members between November 2025 and January 2026 to examine staffing models, operational
budgets, and the potential impact of reductions under different scenarios. These workshops allowed for
difficult discussions and input regarding reductions, which were incorporated into the Superintendent’s
initial recommendations for reductions in January.
School Committee Community Forums: In partnership with the Superintendent and the Assistant
Superintendent of Finance and Operations, the School Committee Budget Subcommittee has hosted two
forums in December and January and will host a third in February. These forums have been hybrid,
recorded, and posted to the district website.
Stakeholder Listening Sessions: Finally, the Superintendent has continued to hold optional listening
sessions for families throughout January and February, using the same protocol to guide small group
discussions and individual interviews.

Summary – Financial
Summary of Revenues and Expenditures
The Town of Arlington supports the School Department by providing the Town Appropriation. For FY27, the
town appropriation includes a 4% increase to $107,775,899. The Town Appropriation includes funds from
Chapter 70 education state aid as well as local property tax revenues. The Town combines these two sources of
funding to create the Town Appropriation, which then makes up the General Fund for Arlington Public Schools.
Grant revenue for FY27 is budgeted to be the same as the adjusted FY26 awarded grants, except for Title I (see
Page 20).
The district also receives revenue from fees and reimbursements, including foreign student tuition and income
from the rental of Peirce Field and school buildings. The state special education Circuit Breaker is the largest
source of reimbursement revenue. The district factors in the year-over-year increase or decrease in Circuit
Breaker in building the general fund budget. For FY27, the district is anticipating having $2,227,957 in Circuit
Breaker revenue available to offset the cost of Out-of-District Tuitions, an increase of $295,956 over what was
available when the FY26 Budget was approved by the School Committee.
Revolving Fund revenue is budgeted to decrease by 13.6% during FY27 for a total of $1,309,067.
Total revenue for the District is budgeted at $113,950,514, a 3.84% overall increase from FY26.

APS Funding Summary
The Funding Summary shows a breakdown of the District funding changes through the past several years’
budgets as revised to reflect final grant amounts. It also shows the funding changes that are expected to happen
as the District moves to the Superintendent’s Proposed FY27 Budget.
The School Department, unlike other departments of the Town of Arlington, does not receive all of its funding
from the Town Appropriation voted by Town Meeting. In the FY26 Budget, the Town Appropriation was 94.5%
of the total school budget. In the Superintendent’s Proposed FY27 Budget, the Town Appropriation is budgeted
to be 94.6% of the total school budget upon a successful override or 93.6% upon an unsuccessful override.
Grants, revolving fees and reimbursements make up the rest of the school budget.

Title I
Title I, Part A of the federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) provides supplemental resources
to the Arlington Public Schools to help provide all children a significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable,
and high-quality education, and to close educational achievement gaps.
Please note that despite the fact that Arlington has welcomed an increasing number of low-income students
over the past several years (as defined and identified by the state of Massachusetts), due to a $30M reduction
in State Title I funding from the Federal Government, Arlington may not be found Title I eligible in FY27.
That would mean a complete elimination of Title I funding for the Town of Arlington, which would require us
to make some difficult decisions about summer programming and additional support for low-income students.
Arlington is right on the eligibility threshold in DESE’s initial projection of Title I allocations, and will not
know for several months whether we will receive Title I funding. APS has therefore eliminated all Title I
positions in the FY27 budget.

Revolving Fees and Reimbursements
Circuit Breaker has increased by $295,956 to reflect the anticipated amount of Circuit Breaker the district
expects to spend in FY27 toward Out-of-District Tuition expenditures.
Page | 17
Similar to the use of Circuit Breaker funds, the projected revenues for FY27 Revolving Accounts reflect
direct-charge offsets to the Operating Budget. The Foreign Exchange account has experienced a participation
drop and the $90,000 reflects direct charges to the fund, including the salary for the International Exchange
Program Coordinator. The Building Rental account is projected to receive an increase in revenues as all
Arlington High School facilities are now available and rental rates have been adjusted to reflect market
conditions. Expenditures to the Building Rental account include custodial rental payroll charges, the District’s
vendor snow removal contract, and portions of the District’s purchases of electricity, custodial cleaning supplies,
and the overnight cleaning contract for Ottoson Middle School and Arlington High School.
Budget Transfer Summary
With careful and thoughtful consideration, the budget presented is balanced and will support the Arlington
Public Schools’ priorities. This budget has additional schedules and tables to explain the details of this budget.
The School Committee is responsible for voting on a budget to fund Arlington Public Schools in a format in
which it also controls the budget. This format breaks the School Budget into six major categories, using the
following category codes:
1. Elementary Education
2. Secondary Education
3. Special Education and Student Services
4. Curriculum & Instruction
5. Administration
6. Other (Facilities, IT, and Transportation)
All of these categories are presented here for the FY23, FY24, FY25, FY27, and the Proposed FY27 Budget. The
School Committee uses the budget transfer categories as a control mechanism over the budget. This practice was
established as a School Committee Policy entitled Budget Transfer Authority on June 28, 2011. The policy
requires that the Superintendent receive School Committee approval prior to transferring budgeted funds
between any of the six categories that make up the total School Department budget. This format allows a clear
understanding of how the District Budget is allocated among key elements of the Arlington Public Schools.

Informational – Student Enrollments
Student Enrollment Trends
The Arlington Public Schools’ enrollment had been climbing throughout the decade preceding the pandemic.
Student population growth began at the early elementary level and moved up through the system. Prior projected
growth was expected to slow slightly at the elementary and middle school levels. Initially, High School
enrollment was expected to be impacted by the opening of the new Minuteman Vocational Technical School
together with the start of construction at Arlington High School. However, all-in projections have continued to
show enrollment growth at the district level.
The following chart shows the various projection scenarios for Enrollment in the Arlington Public Schools.
These projections include a historical projection by McKibben which has proven the most accurate to date. The
blue line shows actual enrollment, which has tracked with the McKibben projection following the pandemic. The
district partnered with a new vendor in FY25 and 26 to conduct new forecasting projections, given shifting
enrollment patterns district-wide, which are placing significant space pressure on some schools. Those newer
projections are shown in orange, and the district’s internal projection calculation is shown in green. Notable is
the fact that the district’s enrollment has been higher than projected in FY26 and over the past several years,
creating uncertainty about the reliability and validity of projection formulas. This reality, combined with the
rising cost of services, has contributed to funding strains.
*Please note that Out of District Placed students are included in enrollment totals, but PreK is not because it is not required
by the Commonwealth.
An enrollment projection mathematically extends past changes in enrollment into the future. An enrollment
projection at best provides an informed guess about enrollment trends in the future, but cannot capture changes
in economic conditions, reputation, and other social factors that impact family decision-making.
Page | 21
Additional Enrollment Trends
One of the reasons for increased school enrollments over the past couple of years includes more Arlington
families sending their students to APS for their children’s education. This is no surprise, given our commitment
to engaging families in ways that value the expertise they bring to the learning experience, our beautiful new
spaces and programming at Arlington High School, and our focus on ensuring all students receive access to a
well-rounded education. In FY25, we interrogated this enrollment trend to identify some of the driving factors
behind new enrollments, and found that an increasing number of families are joining APS from private school
settings. This trend is consistent regardless of whether families are returning to APS or are joining APS for the
first time, and has only become more significant in FY27.
The following chart and graphs show an increasing percentage of Arlington families - from 85% in 2022 to 93%
in 2026 – are choosing to send their children to APS, and that most of these new enrollments happen at the start
of transitional grades - specifically, at the start of middle school and at the start of high school. APS also has an
historical trend of welcoming new students in Grade 1 for families who chose to send their children to
Kindergarten in a program they may have attended for Preschool or daycare.
The first chart shows the schooling choices of APS families overall, from FY21 through the current school year.
The second chart shows the prior school settings for all new and returning APS families (new enrollments) for
each of the past five school years. Finally, the third chart shows the grade levels for newly-enrolling families,
demonstrating the need for additional resources at the secondary level.
Page | 22
*percentages are calculated as a percent of total new enrollments for that school year, not for the grade level over
multiple school years. Each color zone totals 100% of new enrollments for that year, so this chart demonstrates
how new enrollments have shifted over time, following historical enrollment trends.
Page | 23
Shifting Elementary and Secondary Enrollments
There are very few reductions planned for OMS and AHS due to rapidly shifting enrollments to the secondary
level. In both budget scenarios, reductions have been planned for elementary sections, elementary specialist
staffing, and district-wide positions due to this enrollment pattern, and in an effort to maintain reasonable class
sizes and robust programming at the secondary level. In the “YES” Scenario, reductions do not impact student
programming at the elementary level, and are a response to enrollment changes. In the “NO” Scenario,
reductions will impact programming significantly.

APS Student Demographics 2020-2026
The APS 5-year Strategic Plan is designed to improve the school experience for ALL APS students with a focus
on educational experiences that enhance joy, growth, and belonging across departments and schools in APS. The
Plan explicitly names 5 Focal Groups as areas of concern and targeted support, and names that these student
groups may require additional resources over the course of the 5-year plan. These groups include:
Students, and the families and teachers of students, who have IEPs
Students, families, and staff who identify as Black or Hispanic/Latino
Students, families, and staff who identify as non-binary, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer,
intersexual, and asexual (LGBTQIA+)
Students who are multilingual learners (MLs) and their families and who speak a language other than
English as their primary language in the home
Students and families who are low-income
Taken together, these increasing populations also impact the number of students who are identified as “high
needs,” an aggregate category that includes many of our focal group indicators. The graph below shows the
steady increase of diverse learning needs, from 25.5% in 2019 to 29.5% in 2026. Paired with enrollment growth,
this trend means that APS is required to provide more services, which leads to increases in expenses.

Schools
Arlington High School
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
AHS has demonstrated strong progress across academic performance, access, engagement, and climate. MCAS
scores in ELA, Math, and Science have remained steady and are trending upward, with students with IEPs
making notable gains in ELA and closing gaps relative to the state average. Course outcomes improved, with the
percentage of A/B grades increasing from 87% to 91% and students earning any F declining from 8% to 5%.
Access to rigorous learning expanded significantly, with AP participation increasing from 438 students (27%) in
2021 to 741 students (43%) in 2025, and 93% of AP students earning scores of 3 or higher. Attendance reached
95.6%, exceeding pre-pandemic levels, while chronic absenteeism declined to 7.3%, with targeted supports
addressing persistent subgroup gaps.
Student voice, wellbeing, and inclusion were further strengthened through expanded Voices United
programming, student-led forums, and schoolwide wellness and inclusion workshops for students and staff.
These efforts contributed to improved culture and climate outcomes, reflected in substantial Panorama survey
gains since 2021 in Belonging (+18), School Climate (+24), and Teacher–Student Relationships (+17). In
addition, the completion of the Arlington High School building project in October marked a major milestone,
delivering modernized learning spaces that support instructional quality, collaboration, accessibility, and student
engagement. The FY27 budget supports the staffing, systems, and structures necessary to sustain this progress
for a growing and increasingly diverse student population.
Page | 27
Ottoson Middle School
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
Ottoson has shown strong progress in meeting and exceeding MCAS targets and is in the 97th accountability
percentile with student focal groups having made substantial progress towards their goals.
While MCAS data and scores are one very public piece of the data
puzzle, what truly stands out goes well beyond the scores. The
students, teachers, and families care deeply about education.
Through relationships that stretch beyond the walls of the
classrooms, students engage and excel. This year in particular,
Ottoson saw strong growth for many focal groups as a direct result
of the care and dedication teachers bring to their profession and the
deeper instruction that not only builds skills but also creates
students of high character. There is a continued focus on high
leverage instructional strategies across the school. Teachers and
students create beautiful and engaging work each year, highlighted
by the 8th grade Civics Action Projects, with Ottoson named 6th in
the state for MCAS scores. Student Council leads activities to
strengthen and renew the school culture, while History Day
projects advance to state and national competitions. Performing
arts students participate in the Great East Music Festival which
features band, chorus, and orchestra students. New this year,
innovative elective courses provide experiential and project based
learning opportunities that bridge the classroom to the outside world.
This year Ottoson launched its first-ever middle school chapter of Best Buddies and is preparing to pilot Unified
PE for semester two in partnership with LABBB. Both programs intentionally create inclusive spaces where
students develop a strong sense of belonging, practice authentic leadership, and build meaningful peer
connections across all ability levels. These accomplishments underscore the commitment of the dedicated
teaching staff and their belief in the power of inclusion to strengthen our entire school community.
Page | 28
Gibbs School
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
Gibbs students had an outstanding 24-25 school year, making strong academic gains across all content areas. A
record number of students participated in band, chorus and orchestra which is a testament to the program at
Gibbs, but also throughout the elementary schools in APS. Over 90% of students took world language courses as
well as quarterly courses in: health, computer science, technology and music.
Almost 400 students participated in Nature's Classroom for an outdoor experiential learning opportunity.
Students learned about nature and connected on a deeper level with their peers in a three day, two night camp in
Charleston, MA. Students also learned about eco-friendly practices, art, nature etc - all of which takes place in an
outdoor, low-tech environment!
For this school year, the Gibbs school is focusing closely on aligning practices, classes and policies with the
Ottoson so that students and families can have a more predictable experience. This means that Gibbs and
Ottoson school goals, communication efforts, and course work are intended to build closely off of one another. In
addition to that Gibbs staff has worked really hard to build a strong adult learning environment. Every staff
member works on a community over the course of the year - either instructional, social-emotional or logistical -
and each staff member is on the committee they wanted to be on! Gibbs looks forward to continuing to improve
as a school this year and is so proud of the school and students.

Bishop Elementary School
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
Student Belonging and Voice: Bishop has intentionally strengthened
practices that foster a sense of belonging and affirm every student’s
voice and identity. These efforts include schoolwide
community-building activities, the use of family and student feedback
surveys, and inclusive instructional practices within classrooms.
Together, these initiatives help create a learning environment where
students feel valued, nurtured, and empowered to fully engage in their
learning.
Professional Development: Throughout the year, staff have engaged
in professional development sessions focused on instructional practices
that support the goal to provide all students with access to rigorous and
inclusive learning experiences. Deepening student discourse continues
to be an important part of work in both the ELA and Math curriculum.
Instructional Leadership Team’s work: The Bishop School Instructional Leadership Team has been working
to deepen its understanding of student experiences through the use of focal groups and empathy interviews.
These conversations have provided valuable insight into students’ perspectives on learning, belonging, and
engagement, allowing the ILT to better identify strengths and areas for growth in instructional practices. In
addition, the ILT has conducted equity walkthroughs to assess the presence of equitable teaching practices across
classrooms. Findings from these walkthroughs are used to highlight effective strategies, promote reflective
dialogue, and share best practices among staff, supporting a more inclusive and responsive learning environment
for all students.
Weekly Team Collaboration: Bishop continues to use weekly grade-level planning and ACE meetings as an
integral part of increasing instructional effectiveness. These meetings foster collaborative problem-solving and
inform instruction through the analysis of student data. Literacy and mathematics coaches attend most meetings
and play a critical role in guiding and deepening these conversations. Together, these meetings emphasize
intentional academic discourse within daily lessons to increase student engagement and promote deeper learning.

Dallin Elementary School
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
Becoming a School of Excellence
This year, Dallin was honored as a Massachusetts DESE
School of Excellence. This designation was awarded for
strong academic performance, high growth, for all students
and a commitment to equity. This recognition reflects years
of intentional work by our staff to align instruction, expand
student voice, and cultivate a joyful, inclusive learning
environment.
Shared Leadership and Teacher-Led PD
Through the leadership of the Instructional Leadership Team (ILT), Dallin launched a full-year inquiry cycle
(PDSA) focused on implementing a new Language Arts curriculum. Teachers used walkthroughs, common
look-fors, and video-based PD. This work continues with a focus on helping
students build upon peer contributions in discussion, a core skill in both
literacy and deeper learning.
Now in the second year of full K-5 implementation, the EL Education
curriculum continues to provide students with rich, culturally responsive texts
and high-leverage literacy routines. From close reading to collaborative
writing, students are developing habits of deep thinking, revision, and
perseverance.
METCO and Cross-Cultural Belonging
Dallin continues to celebrate and support the inclusion of students from Boston through the METCO program.
With a focus on cross-cultural understanding, we are expanding family partnerships, affinity spaces, and
inclusive practices that reflect the full diversity of our school community.
Student Voice, Leadership, and Joy
Programs such as the Rainbow Alliance, Student Council, Recess Captains, and classroom feedback routines are
empowering students to take part in shaping school culture. Focus on student ownership and belonging is not just
aspirational, it’s visible daily in the questions students ask, the risks they take, and the care they show for one
another.

Peirce Elementary School
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
Peirce Elementary School is a vibrant place for teaching, learning
and community. The school serves 324 students each day, supported
by 64 dedicated faculty members. On many days, family volunteers
assist in the library and throughout the school. Our K–5 school
includes 16 general education classrooms as well as a Supported
Learning Center for students with Dyslexia.
The following highlights are what makes Peirce an exceptional school community:
Peirce’s mascot is the “Fancy the Flamingo” and the motto “Flamingos Flock Together” reflects the
school's strong sense of belonging. Peirce Elementary School welcomes all students to our flock.
There is a highly involved parent community that embraces and supports the vision and mission of the
school.
Continued implementation of EL Curriculum across all grades, fostering strong student engagement,
rigorous lessons, and critical text analysis.
Grant funding helped to introduce Stern Math, a multisensory instructional approach that makes learning
math dynamic and accessible for all students.
The school culture is grounded in the core values of Persistence, Empathy, Inclusion, Respect, Creativity,
and Excellence.
The Instructional Leadership Team (ILT) collaborates continuously to strengthen instructional practices,
with an emphasis on academic discourse and culturally responsive instruction.
Through Wellness and Sunshine Clubs; Social Emotional Learning ( SEL); Climate, Culture, and
Belonging; Community Outreach/Green Team; ILT, Superintendent Advisory; PTO; Intervention, and

Thompson Elementary School
Major Accomplishments and Highlights FY26
Thompson School currently has over 500 students and 70+ staff
members. There is great pride in the diversity of the Thompson
community and commitment to the academic, social, and
emotional well being of all Thompson students. The school's
strength lies in its partnerships with families, the PTO, and
community resources such as Arlington EATS. With those
partnerships Thompson is able to ensure that all students have
access to enrichment activities outside of the school day, and that
their basic needs can be met.
Schoolwide expectations of Be Safe, Be Respectful, and Be
Responsible guide daily interactions and reinforce the Thompson
motto: “Be a Pineapple. Stand tall. Be YOUR Best!” These shared
values help create a positive school culture rooted in belonging, responsibility, and student pride.
Highlights from the past year include several initiatives designed to strengthen communication, access, and
student engagement. Thompson partnered with the Communications and Family Department as the pilot school
for the ParentSquare communication platform. As part of this pilot, the school has been working with district
teams on foundation implementation efforts, including data accuracy, staff rostering, and system configuration,
for a thoughtful and reliable rollout.
The school is also a satellite location for Spy Ponders Threads, whereAPS families, students, and staff can access
essential items they need to thrive with the goal of working towards a more sustainable Arlington. This is made
possible with support of an Arlington Education Foundation (AEF) Grant.
A shift to a student-led Open House at the beginning of the school year has allowed more caregivers and
extended family members to experience a school visit without the barrier of childcare. This new structure
empowers Thomspon students to take pride in their learning and the school, while sharing and translating their
experience in a home language that more families can understand.

Science
Major Accomplishments and
Highlights in FY26
Across all tested grades, APS shows
strong upward trajectories in Science
MCAS performance, with gains in overall
achievement and notable improvement
among key student subgroups. While
gaps remain for Students with IEPs,
Multilingual Learners, and Low-Income
students, APS subgroup performance
frequently exceeds statewide averages,
indicating that district efforts are helping
reduce broader disparities. APS science
programs demonstrate coherent curriculum progression, strong instructional practice, and growing alignment
with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) expectations. Continued
emphasis on equitable Tier 1 instruction, academic language development, and
inquiry-based, sensemaking-focused pedagogy will be essential to further closing
gaps and elevating outcomes for all learners.
Districtwide, we continue to expand NGSS-aligned instructional practices by
anchoring learning in real-world phenomena, integrating Science and Engineering
Practices, emphasizing student sensemaking, connecting Crosscutting Concepts,
and prioritizing equity. We are designing assessments that measure both SEPs and
Disciplinary Core Ideas, moving beyond recall toward authentic application. In
alignment with DESE guidance, we are exploring performance-based assessments
that require students to use knowledge in real-world contexts. We are also
engaging in cross-grade calibration of student work, particularly in grades 6–8, to
ensure consistent expectations and equitable instructional decisions.
We are working across departments to deliver focused, targeted professional
development. The math and science departments are collaborating to identify
integration opportunities, enhance engagement strategies, increase rigor, and strengthen instructional practices.
This includes joint work on ensuring all science classes are accessible to every student and partnering during the
November 10 all-district PD day to view and discuss the film Counted Out as part of our equity-focused

History and Social Studies
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
The History and Social Studies Department spearheaded two grants from
DESE - a Genocide Education Grant ($44,480) and a planning grant for
the Innovation Career Pathways Program ($15,000). Both of these grants
target Strategic Priority 1 by improving the sense of belonging and
opportunities for students. The Genocide Education grant is providing
four workshops for student leaders at Ottoson and AHS on being an
"upstanders". Additionally, the Genocide Education grant provided a
workshop for all 3rd grade teachers about Indigenous History that will
prepare them for changes to the 3rd grade curriculum. 96% of the teacher
"strongly agreed" that the PD was relevant to their work. (Strategic
Priority 2.2)
The Innovation Career Pathways planning grant is starting a process that
will transform many courses to move towards additional authentic and
deeper learning experiences. For example, Health Care is the first pathway that AHS is pursuing which will
involve Science, Math, Wellness and Social Studies (Psychology) courses. The Pathways Program will also
expand internships in the Pathway as well as improve college and career guidance throughout the school.
Supporting students in our focal groups is at the center of these efforts. Additionally, AHS will create an
Education Pathway that will support Strategic Priority 2.1. We will pursue a $75,000 implementation grant.
As mentioned above, last year we engaged in a full review of our K-5 curriculum to cover more of the MA State
Frameworks and align with the K-5 EL curriculum. Crystal Power, the Elementary Specialist, completed
multiple revisions and piloting is beginning. Crystal and Michael Kozuch are presenting the 5th grade
Government unit at the NCSS Conference in Washington DC this December.
Our 8th grade Civics MCAS scores were 6th in the state. AP scores and participation continue to increase. Ex.

Visual Arts
The Arlington Visual Arts philosophy is grounded in the Studio Habits of Mind and the Teaching for Artistic
Behaviors (TAB) curriculum models. In a TAB classroom, the child is the artist, the classroom is the child’s
studio, and the teacher supports the child’s creative vision.
Students are still given direct instruction in a wide variety of media, including drawing, painting, printmaking,
ceramics, sculpture, fabric, photography, woodworking, metalsmithing, and various digital arts, but our
paramount concern is to help every student develop a unique creative vision that connects with their individual
interests, community, and culture.

Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and School Counseling
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
In FY26, the department was unable to fill the SEL Specialist position after a resignation, leaving one Mental
Health Specialist and one District-Wide Social Worker to sustain and expand departmental work alongside
building-based counselors and social workers. As a result, the Tier 1 SEL responsibilities previously handled by
the SEL Specialist were absorbed by these two roles. These responsibilities include facilitating Wellness
Workshops at AHS, providing one-on-one coaching for educators, and supporting elementary schools with Tier 1
Second Step implementation—both digital and traditional curricula, as well as the Bullying Prevention
curriculum. In SY25–26, all elementary schools will implement, at minimum, the Tier 1 Bullying Prevention
program in grades 3–5, with the goal of expanding to all grades in SY26–27.
Ongoing mental health supports sustained across
the district include clinical supervision, coaching,
and support for counselors and social
workers—eliminating the need for stipends for
licensure supervision. Additional responsibilities
include administering and managing the
Panorama SEL and Well-being screener,
participating in building-based Social
Work/Administrator meetings, providing direct
in-school support when social workers are absent
or when teams need assistance, consulting on
crisis management and mandated reporting, and
conducting home visits to support families
experiencing chronic absenteeism. While they do
not carry formal caseloads, both specialists provide direct services to high-needs students and families,
supporting and modeling best practices for building-based teams.
The department also offers caregiver workshops on topics such as SPACE, peer conflict, and attendance
challenges; teaches Youth Mental Health First Aid to staff and community members; and provides districtwide
professional development, including paraprofessional training and secondary early release sessions.
A major new focus this year is addressing chronic absenteeism. This includes implementing a three-part
caregiver intervention consisting of assessment, psychoeducation, and coordination with outside providers, as
well as supporting school teams in reviewing attendance data, developing attendance plans and trackers,
conducting home visits, and strengthening collaboration with community providers.

Science Residency: Aligned with Strategic Priority 1.2, ensuring every student feels a sense of belonging, the
EAO conducted a two-day residency at Gibbs School to assess practices and
environments through an equity lens. The residency provided insights and
recommendations to strengthen equity and inclusion within the school
community. This work supports the district’s broader goal of cultivating an
educational environment where all learners feel valued, experience joy and

School Food and Nutrition Services
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
The School Food and Nutrition Services program is state and federally funded through reimbursements for meals
meeting strict USDA standards. Our diverse team of 50 staff members serves 10 schools, including Menotomy
Preschool.
As one of only nine states with permanent Universal Free Meals, Massachusetts ensures all students have access
to healthy food regardless of income. This policy has steadily increased participation, leading to higher
reimbursement levels that allow for continuous program improvements and investment in our kitchens.
Highlights from the last year include:
Universal Free Meals: Continued permanent access to free breakfast and lunch for all Massachusetts students,
ensuring consistent food security.
Breakfast Growth: Participation surged by 27% this year, with nearly 117,000 meals served—building on a
15% increase from the previous year.
Lunch Expansion: Participation rose by 8%, reaching 615,000 meals prepared and served to the Arlington
student body.
Culturally Responsive Menus: The team remains engaged with the John
Stalker Institute’s CRISP series to develop and implement internationally
inspired menu options in line with our district goals.
Culinary Excellence: Three managers completed the intensive 5-day
Culinary Boot Camp at the John Stalker Institute, gaining hands-on
scratch-cooking techniques and leadership skills to train their own teams.
State Recognition: The department received the December Terrific Tray
award from the DESE Office for Food and Nutrition Programs for its
innovative Cambodian Khmer curry, which highlighted locally sourced
vegetables and honored the team's Cambodian nutrition professionals.
National Achievement: Arlington High School earned the Healthy Meals
Incentives (HMI) Achievement Award for Innovation in the Preparation of
School Meals. This national honor recognizes the team’s success in
expanding scratch-made menu offerings, including Hawaiian Poke Bowls,
Chicken Curry, and Butter Chicken.
Legislative Advocacy: Assistant Director Alexa Downs represented the
district at the School Nutrition Association (SNA) Legislative Action
Conference (LAC) in Washington, D.C. She engaged directly with
lawmakers to discuss regulatory challenges and advocate for policies that
support school nutrition programs and student health.

Communications and Family Engagement
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
The Department of Communications & Family
Engagement leads districtwide efforts to ensure all
Arlington Public Schools families have timely,
transparent, and equitable access to information,
resources, and opportunities for meaningful
engagement. Through the APS Welcome & Resource
Center, enrollment support services, translation and
interpretation coordination, and programs such as
Spy Ponder Threads, the department works to
remove barriers, center student and family voices,
and create inclusive pathways for every family to
navigate and participate in the educational
experience.
In 2024–25, the Department of Communications & Family Engagement expanded districtwide communication
systems, strengthened crisis communication protocols, and adopted ParentSquare as the district’s primary family
communication platform. After reassessing the previous two-way messaging tool, the team began a thoughtful,
phased rollout focused on building strong foundations, including system setup, clear processes, and data
alignment. This intentional upstream work helps ensure a smoother, more transparent experience for schools and
families as implementation continues.
The APS Welcome & Resource Center supported a record number of new and newcomer families, streamlining
enrollment, improving translation workflows, and responding to hundreds of support requests for housing, food,
winter gear, and essential needs. Spy Ponder Threads grew into a multi-site program with new satellite locations,
community partnerships, and year-round distribution events. The department also led successful town-wide
initiatives including Warm Up for Winter, Tools for School, and multilingual family forums, while elevating
family voice through surveys, empathy interviews, and improved PTO engagement structures.

Central Office Data Team
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
The Central Office Data Team transforms information into powerful tools for educators and administrators. Their
work is not just about numbers; it is about empowering teachers, staff, and administrators with data-driven
insights and access to systems with efficient, well-documented workflows and resources.
This team continues to build on its mission of fostering excellence and innovation. Over the past year, the team’s
dedicated efforts have yielded significant accomplishments, ensuring both operational efficiency and enhanced
support for students and educators. This narrative outlines the key successes from the prior year, reflecting the
collaborative and results-driven culture of our district. In 2025, major projects included:
Summer Rollover & Initialization of 2025-2026 school year within PS SIS: The 2025-2026 school year
officially began this summer with the rollover of our student information system (PS SIS). The work included
the coordination of secondary schedules being completed and summer checklist items for all schools, so that
student and teacher schedules were available when end users returned in mid- August.
As part of this launch, the team rolled out a new Help and Support menu for PS Admin users directly within the
PowerSchool interface. It links to materials maintained by district departments that manage workflows within PS
SIS or provide direct support to end users, including Digital Learning, Registration, Communications, Guidance,
and Curriculum teams. The menu also provides curated vendor Distance Learning content, references for
school-based workflows and building-specific processes, and family guidance developed by Communications.
Content is thoughtfully organized by user role and security permissions, so staff see only the resources relevant
to their access. All items are searchable in PowerSchool for easy access to guidance and training.
State and Federal Reporting Compliance: APS successfully completed all state reporting reports (SIMS,SCS,
EPIMS, SSDR) within prescribed deadlines. This achievement reflects the meticulous planning, attention to
detail, and collaborative efforts of our reporting team. By maintaining compliance with state mandates, APS has
secured critical funding and demonstrated accountability to our community and state partners.
Integrations with District Systems: In support of technology administrators across the district, the Central
Office Data Team helped introduce more efficient rostering methods through automated tools within PS SIS.
These efforts supported integrations with systems such as Clever and PowerSchool Professional Learning, as
well as the initial implementation of the ParentSquare platform as it relates to automated rostering.
In addition to direct integrations, the team continued to provide guidance and operational support to Curriculum,
Registration, and Information Technology teams whose 2025 initiatives required coordination and action within
PS SIS.

Grants
Major Accomplishments and Highlights in FY26
The grants department submits state, federal, and private grant applications for Arlington Public Schools. The
department works with project directors across the district to ensure appropriate spending and reporting of funds.
The grants department also files amendments, completes time and effort reports, and much more. The Grants
Administrator is the APS Liaison on the Arlington Education Foundation (AEF) board and maintains a strong
relationship with this foundation by helping submit applications, discussing funding needs and opportunities at
monthly meetings, and helping to communicate the purchasing procedures of the district’s Business Office.
The Grants Administrator applies for grants that are relevant to Arlington Public Schools’ needs. The Grants
Department also manages all financial transactions related to purchases funded through grants, and ensures that
the salaries for staff working under grants are correctly allocated to the appropriate grant. Arlington Education
Foundation (AEF) is a key funder of new projects for the district, both for teachers and department heads, as well
as for district strategic initiatives. This year, AEF created a new opportunity for applying for and receiving
grants: Club Grants are to go towards
funding for before-and-after-school
extracurricular activities, like event costs,
materials, devices, etc. These grants can be
submitted by staff or students, and we have
seen many students get involved and submit
their very own grant application.
In addition, AEF funded the Spy Ponders
Threads Development & Expansion grant for
$20,000, which provided clothing and
essential items for multiple schools across
the district. This effort supports students and
families throughout the year who may need
any wearable items, hygiene products, and
more. This partnership with AEF really
helps to build the community and continue
meeting the needs of students and their
families.

Department onboarded 427 new hires across all categories of employment in the District. The HR Department
supports District administrators and staff in all areas, including benefits, leaves of absence, educator licensure,
compliance with contracts and laws, and general HR questions. This work continues in FY 2026.
In addition, the department supports administrators in the administration of the district’s collective bargaining
with all seven of our bargaining units. The HR Department participated in the successful negotiations of six of
the seven contracts within the past year.
The department acts as the Benefits Administrator for the District. This is largely the responsibility of the

Budget by Object Summary
This is the view familiar to those who look at the quarterly expense reports. Similar to the cost center and
program views, the Object summary includes the FY23, FY24, FY25 final expense totals, FY26 Budgets and the
Superintendent’s Proposed FY27 Budget. The object codes capture the type of expense, across all cost centers,
departments, and program areas. This summary view allows us to look at the School Department budget by
broad categories of expense.

Budget by Program Summary
The Program Summary includes the FY23, FY24, FY25 Final Expenses Budget and the Superintendent’s
Proposed FY27 Budget.
In this view we are looking at all expenses on the general fund, regardless of funding source, subtotal by
Program. This Program view allows us to look at activity in our budget by educational themes.
For example, elementary classroom instruction is found in Program 3004 – Elementary Education. At the
Middle and High School levels, classroom instruction is divided by areas of subject content, like Mathematics
or Social Studies. Program 3005 – Secondary Education is primarily used for general supplies that are at the
discretion of the Principal, while teacher salaries and other instructional material are to be found under the
subject content that they teach. Athletics are shown in greater detail in Programs 3600 to 3620.

Caseload and Per Pupil Staffing Analysis by Specific Roles
The following analyses break down the number of students and staff in specific roles across schools and departments.
Each table shows the current allocation (FY26 Actual), the FY27 "YES" Scenario Proposed Allocation, and the FY27 "NO"
Scenario Proposed Allocation. It then calculates, based on student enrollment and school-based populations, an
approximate caseload by role at each school and district wide, for both the YES and NO scenarios.
Caveats to caseload data:
No role should only be understood by the number of students the individual serves. Some students require more
support, others less. Some schools have specialized special education programming that others do not. Older
students need different support than younger students. Secondary schedules are very different from primary
schedules, and the list goes on.
Some roles should not be allocated based solely on student enrollment. For example, Gibbs serves one grade of
students - but the staff there have less time to get to know the students, so additional staffing support might be
warranted to ensure smooth transitions into and out of the school. Other roles serve the full community of
learners, and should not be reduced to part-time simply because there are fewer students in the school, because
of the impact it would have on the full community.
We need to implement the budget we propose. That means we need to be able to hire excellent educators into
the positions we budget. Part-time positions are not attractive to most educators, especially those who need a
full-time salary. Positions that do not come with a designated location are also less attractive. We must balance
caseload considerations with what we can actually effectively implement without being out of compliance with
regulations and contract terms.
Some of our staff are on district-wide accounts but are shared between specific schools. In those cases,
caseloads are manually calculated below to reflect that staffing support at the school level. The pivot tables do not
pull these staffers into the base calculation because of the accounts to which they are charged.
