What our Teachers are Saying

“The DC Prep model includes teaching very high standards academically but then also teaching habits and character throughout every moment of the day. We don't isolate our character lessons just to Advisory or the first 30 minutes of the day, we actually narrate the habits and skills that we see our Preppies doing and not doing - almost moment-by-moment.”
Julia King, 7th Grade Math Teacher; 2013 DC Teacher of the Year
