Alexandria Public Schools

At Alexandria Area High School, there are a number of opportunities for the community to partner with students and staff. The Academies of Alexandria provide an innovative learning environment for students in which they can explore and experience more personalized authentic learning.

In 9th grade students are in the Freshman Exploration Academy where they explore about themselves, including their strengths and interests and how these may relate to careers. Students then select one of our three other academies to enter during the their sophomore year: Business, Communication & Entrepreneurship; Engineering, Manufacturing Technologies & Natural Resources; or Health Sciences & Human Services. 

Community resources and partnerships are needed to share their guidance and field expertise with students and staff. 

Work with the after school child-care Compass staff to provide the CATCH program for children Kindergarten - 5th grade.

Maintain a literacy bookroom full of books that are used for reading instruction. A well-organized bookroom will allow staff quick and easy access.
