A Message from the Principal

A Message from the Principal

Ashburn Community School opened its doors ten years ago to relieve overcrowding in eight area schools on controlled enrollment. As a result, Ashburn is now culturally diverse and serves more than 400 students. Parents are encouraged to participate in the Local School Council (LSC), Parent Advisory Council (PAC), and Bilingual Advisory Council (BAC).

We know that as parents you have lots of choices, we hope you choose Ashburn. Ashburn offers a rigorous educational program, Fine and Performing Arts Curriculum, and Pre-Algebra and Algebra for selected students. Ashburn is a Personalized Learning School and we believe in student agency, voice, and choice. Our Motto is "Moving from Good to Exceptional” and we are dedicated and committed to ensuring the best educational experience for you and your child. We invite you to come and volunteer and see Ashburn at its best. We want you to take advantage of these offerings and make Ashburn your choice for an amazing elementary school experience!
