DC Bilingual Public Charter School

DC Public Charter School expands with more dynamic spaces for learning

This phased and occupied modernization project included a 27,000-SF addition to the existing building expanding DC Bilingual’s current Ward 5 campus to serve more than 700 students. Improvements and upgrades included age-appropriate classrooms and furniture, an expanded gym, and updated art and music spaces. Additional new spaces include science, culinary, and computer labs, library space, breakout instruction areas, and student support areas for intervention, testing, and mental health.
