Arlington High School is a fabulous school with tremendous opportunities for both academic and athletic success. They have copious amounts of student engagement and clubs to join, and everyone fits in somewhere. You have to be proactive in finding these opportunities, though, in order to cultivate personal success. The school's large population doesn't really encourage hand holding, so it's important that your child is speaking up and being their own advocate when it comes to their academics and extracurriculars. They have so many AP courses that really helped me jumpstart my college career and graduate in 3.5 years instead of 4. As a proud alumni, my experiences at Arlington were a major factor in my successful post-college career.

The principal is awful,full of herself and bullies staff and children. Its a shame because there are some good teachers. Teachers that work in the district agree that the administration is stuck in the past

excellent - my daughter just graduated on to middle school. she is leaving with great memories.

I've had three children go through this school , and all three of them looked forward to going to school everyday. The teaches and staff are amazing .
