Aurora Public Schools is developing a Portrait of an APS Graduate, a shared vision of the knowledge, skills and character traits every student needs to thrive in school, career and life. This vision will guide learning across APS so that every student is prepared for the future they choose.
We invite students, families, staff and community members to join us for one of our upcoming Community Listening Sessions to share ideas and help shape this important work. Your input will directly influence the Portrait of a Graduate, which will serve as a foundation for how we prepare APS students for success.
Each session will be hosted within our school clusters from Nov. 4 through Nov. 12. All sessions will take place from 4:30 to 6 p.m., with refreshments and interpretation provided.
