After becoming a magnet school in 2004, Arlington International Leadership School has accomplished many great things. With the inception of the MSAP grant, Arlington became a school with the Core Knowledge Curriculum as its foundation. Social studies, history, and geography, as well as all other subject areas, are covered by this curriculum developed by the Core Knowledge Foundation. Emphasis is placed on increasing student achievements and opportunities, improving the school setting, training the teachers in the latest curriculum and technology techniques, establishing new parent programs, and marketing the successes and opportunities Arlington has to offer.
