Campus News Arlington High School Spirit, Pride and Tradition Anyone local in this community can tell you that this iconic phrase belongs to Arlington High School, and Arlington High will stay true to its motto in the 2015-2016 school year. Arlington High is proud to announce that it has Met Standard with the Texas Education Agency in all four areas measured by the state: student achievement, student progress, closing performance gaps and postsecondary readiness. They also received distinction designations in four out of seven areas: reading/language arts, mathematics, science and social studies. These accomplishments would not be possible without the efforts of the amazing teachers, students, staff and parents. Barely under way with the new school year, teachers are already preparing students to meet goals and working to earn all seven distinctions. Excellence will continue in the areas of athletics and fine arts as well. 18 Arlington School & Family - August/September Some highlights to look forward to include: • Homecoming: September 25 • Colt football at AT&T Stadium: October 23 • One Act Play competition: March †
