A Message to Parents
Receive Timely Information & Partner with Us!
Parents play a key role in children's learning and in the reform of DC Public Schools. You share your wisdom, advice, advocacy, and volunteer hours. You participate in focus groups and in our Principals Academy professional development on engaging parents. And there will be more roles to play this coming year.
We hope that this new website helps you find everything you need, including lots of ways to find help from DCPS.
