We are a community of diverse learners, with students from all eight wards of the city, that builds relationships with families and empowers students to be college-ready and to thrive in a global society. Our goal is to provide every student, PreK-8th grade, with the knowledge, the abilities, the attitudes and the support they will need to succeed in college and beyond.

Perry Street Prep is a school on the rise! Our students' growth in reading and math is among the highest in the District, outpacing peers both locally and nationally. And our students and teachers love coming to school. Last year, student reenrollment increased more than any other DC charter school, and over 90% of our teachers returned this school year.
