Today, DC Public Schools (@dcpublicschools) announced that it will commission the use of the field adjacent to Burroughs Elementary for swing space during the modernization of both Burroughs and Bunker Hill Elementary Schools. Here is my statement regarding this announcement.
Seeing our neighborhood kids walk to school helps our community to be more like a village. & access to opportunity is essential for creating equity and equality. Brooklanders: Show up and support this important forum. #newschools #bkswingspace #weareavillage

How does @BurroughsES Principal LeVar Jenkins work to make sure students feel loved, challenged, & prepared? 💙🧗🏾🎓 By first ensuring that school is a place where students want to be. "I want school to be a place where kids can come & just dream the impossible, but also thrive."

Neighborhood schools are the best schools. If the playground at your neighborhood school is good enough for you, then then school is good enough for you. I promise! @MySchoolDC @VoBTS5 @Ward5EEC
We love this!
