Arlington County schools staff are starting contingency plans in case Hoffman-Boston Elementary School fails to meet federal No Child Left Behind requirements this academic year. The school district then would have to reorganize Hoffman-Boston or replace staff.

If it does not meet the adequate yearly progress standard in its reading test scores this school year, it will be the sixth time Hoffman-Boston has failed to meet the federal standard.
