On October 25, 2025 the Town of Arlington officially celebrated the completion of the new Arlington High School with a morning ribbon cutting ceremony and afternoon Community Open House. We appreciate the support from our local and state officials, the Arlington community, and the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) who provided partial funding for the project.
