DC Scholars Public Charter School Inc

A Little about our School

DC Scholars Public Charter School (DCSPCS) opened its doors in Ward 7 of Washington, D.C. in 2012, serving students from preschool through 3rd grade. Each year until 2018, DC Scholars PCS added another grade. Today, DC Scholars PCS serves over 530 preschool through 8th grade students in a beautiful, renovated facility. In 2015, DC Scholars underwent an extensive renovation to feature state of the art technology in all classrooms, a new atrium, and a stunning entrance. In 2026, DC Scholars, with the generous support of our community, transformed its playground into a space where every child - from our preschoolers to our middle schoolers - has a safe, developmentally appropriate space designed just for them.

DC Scholars develops life-long scholars who have the academic knowledge and skills, individual passions, and community-mindedness necessary to succeed in and contribute to an ever-changing world. We have a dedicated and experienced team of teachers during the traditional school day as well as during before and after school programming.
