A $12 million, state-of-the-art Educare school that provides early childhood education aimed at closing the achievement gap for children in poverty will soon break ground in Washington, D.C., pending the approval of a ground lease by the City Council.

The school, funded by a unique consortium of private and public partners, will provide direct services to 175 infants, toddlers, preschoolers and their families in the Parkside Community. It will also serve to spark improvements in early childhood programs throughout the District by spreading best practices and creating new champions for early learning.
