Albemarle County Public Schools (ACPS) is a school district serving Albemarle County, Virginia. Its headquarters are in the City of Charlottesville. ACPS serves approximately 14,000 students in preschool through grade 12 in Albemarle County, Virginia, the sixth largest county by area in the Commonwealth of Virginia. A diverse locality of 726 square miles in the heart of Central Virginia, Albemarle County is a blend of primarily rural, but also suburban and urban settings.

The current Superintendent, Matthew S. Haas, was appointed by the Albemarle County School Board in July 2018.

ACPS is governed by a 7-member school board. 6 members are elected by the county's 6 magisterial districts, while one at-large member is elected by the entire county. Elections are held on odd-numbered years, and members serve staggered 4-year terms.

If a vacancy occurs, the board appoints a new member to serve until the next election. A special election may be held if necessary.

From 2018 to 2024, ACPS renamed several district schools. The board drew sharp criticism after renaming Meriwether Lewis Elementary to Ivy Elementary despite overwhelming support for the original name. In a similar case, constituents objected after the board excised former Principal Benjamin Hurt's name from Agnor-Hurt Elementary. In another instance, the board renamed Paul H. Cale Elementary to Mountain View, on the grounds that Cale had hindered racial integration as superintendent. The Cale family disputed this notion, noting that the accusation largely rested on paraphrased quotes from a single source.

2018 ACPS graduates received 1,078 acceptances from 204 colleges and universities, including 146 acceptances from 15 of the top 25 national universities, according to rankings by U.S. News & World Report.
