#DC has made meaningful progress for students in recent years. Sustaining that momentum requires investments that support all public school students fairly and equitably.

Because equity isn't just about funding - it's about opportunity.

Strong schools are built through strong leadership.

Budget decisions shape what #DC schools are able to offer students every day.

With an estimated funding gap of nearly $2,000 per student across sectors, continued focus on funding equity remains essential.

Every DC student deserves the opportunity to succeed.

#DC’s public charter schools continue to receive less per-student funding than public schools - highlighting the need for equitable investment across all public education.

Sustained support helps ensure every student has access to the opportunities and resources they need to thrive.

Every DC student deserves an equitable opportunity.

Effective student support requires more than short-term solutions.

High-Impact tutoring works best when schools invest in strong systems, consistent implementation, and student-centered strategies that drive real outcomes. Appreciate @The74 for spotlighting this important conversation.

Students, educators, and school leaders came together before the @councilofdc & @OSSEDC to highlight the impact of “The $50 Study” - a research-backed initiative helping students meet real needs, strengthen financial literacy, and stay engaged in school.

Because supporting students outside the classroom strengthens what happens inside it.
