Got plans after college? A new study has ranked Alexandria as the sixth-best city in the country for finding a job after graduation.
CoworkingCafe’s 2025 list of the best large, mid-sized, and small-sized cities for recent graduates is based on the percentage of the population with a bachelor’s degree, the unemployment rate for residents aged 20 to 29, the median income for graduates, the cost of living in Alexandria, and more.
It wasn’t just raining outside today. Tears of happiness streamed from students, parents, educators, and city leaders as 984 Alexandria City High School seniors graduated at George Mason University’s EagleBank Arena. That’s the largest graduating class in ACHS history.
Alexandria City Public Schools Superintendent Melanie Kay-Wyatt told the students that now is the time for them to harness their potential, creativity, brilliance, and resilience.
