Community Ed classes for youth & adults are enrolling

Enrollment continues for Arlington Community Education fall classes, including classes for youth. ACE kids’ programs are being held online, with classes organized by category instead of by school, which means students may invite their friends or family to participate with them—from anywhere. Classes meet after school hours once a week for six to nine weeks.

“We’re so glad we’ve been able to transition so many of our classes to an online format to keep kids learning and engaged this fall,” said Youth Program Manager Andrea Loeb. “In many cases, the same great instructors are teaching the same classes they would in person and have adapted beautifully to the new format.”

“Thank you for offering so many creative options. My daughter looks forward to her class every week!” said one happy parent of a second grader.
