VAPA in the 2025 - 2026 School Year

We know many of the questions among ARUSD families are about how VAPA will look in the 2025-2026 school year. One thing is certain: VAPA will continue! In many cases, school consolidations will bring a greater offering of VAPA programs at one site with many of the programs following the student to their new school. Other programs will be reimagined but will continue nonetheless. 

The VAPA team is working to finalize details but additional information will be shared on this page when available.

Give us your feedback!
