Office of Employee Services Mission Statement
The Office of Employee Services (OES) is dedicated to enhancing student success by attracting, hiring, and retaining top talent in DC Public Schools. By providing exceptional employee services support to our DCPS team members from recruitment to retirement, we aim to empower our employees to focus on what matters most—our students. With a focus on people-centered support and operational excellence, we leverage talent with a goal of all students being supported by staff who feel valued.
Effective August 31, 2026, the DCPS Office of Employee Services has temporarily relocated to the 2nd floor of 1100 4th Street SW (Waterfront), Washington, DC due to building renovations.
Services will continue Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. We anticipate returning to 1200 First Street NE in early November 2026, though the timeline is subject to change based on construction progress. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this transition.
