School Profile
Arlington Memorial High & Middle School
Home of the Eagles
Arlington Memorial High School is a small, comprehensive high school located in the
beautiful Battenkill River Valley in Southwestern Vermont.  The school serves
approximately 230 students in grades 6 through 12 in a traditional eight period day
format, with some block scheduling where appropriate.  Students come to the school
from the towns of Arlington, Sandgate, Sunderland, Bennington, Pownal, Manchester,
Dorset, and Danby.  This area of Vermont is a small, close knit community of family
farms and businesses with a focus on school activities and their importance in the
development of its young people.  With both elementary and high schools renovated
within the last eight years and the addition of the new performing arts center,
Arlington boasts the Martha Canfield Memorial Library adjacent to the schools.  The
Arlington Park and Recreation Association hosts many of our athletic events.  
Arlington is proud to have been the home of artist, Norman Rockwell, First Governor
of Vermont, Thomas Chittenden, writer, Dorothy Canfield Fisher, and many other
notables in the world of art, literature, and historic battles.
