Support Your Child During Virtual Learning
At DCPS, we believe that families are our strongest partners. This partnership is more important than ever as we take the lessons from learning at home together this past spring toward how we will begin the 2020-2021 school year virtually.
To help parents and caregivers have a successful start to the school year, download our new Family Guide to Learning at Home.
This free resource, available in English and Spanish, walks you through what learning at home looks like at DCPS this fall.
