Holiday Message to ACPS Staff from Superintendent Martirano

CUMBERLAND Md. — December 23, 2025

Dear ACPS family,

As we approach our holiday break, I want to extend my sincere thanks and warm wishes to each of you. I deeply appreciate your professionalism, dedication, and the genuine care you possess for our students and school communities every day.
The strong sense of community across our schools reflects our shared commitment to putting students first. I am continually impressed by how our ACPS students, employees, volunteers, and community members work together to create learning environments where every student can succeed.

Creating and sustaining these types of communities requires tremendous effort, and I hope this season provides you with time for rest, reflection, and renewal as you connect with family and loved ones.
Wishing you a peaceful holiday and a joyful new year.
