I don't believe the school has before-care, so I'm not sure what that other commenter is referring to. Overall, the school has questionable practices in my opinion. Scores were poor last year, and it's hard to get transparent and honest information from the administration. Nearby charters have more...

This is a wonderful school and feels like a hidden gem in the DCPS system. Also has Pre-K 3 and 4 along with free before and aftercare.
