Monument Academy PCS

Open Since 2015 Grades 5 - 8
Monument Academy PCS is a weekday boarding school with a mission to empower students, particularly those who have experienced significant adversity, including involvement or risk of involvement in child welfare and/or other social service systems with the requisite academic, social, emotional and life skills to be successful in college, career and community. In addition, we aim to create an outstanding school that attracts, supports, and retains exceptional and caring people. The school is based on five pillars: small class sizes with personalized education, social and emotional well-being services, life skills, a consistent adult connection, and stability. We offer Spanish, Performing Arts, and Music. Our students live in single-gender family-style homes with a houseparent couple. We offer an array of after school activities, field trips, and an end-of-year college visit.

Student Achievement

DC PCSB developed the Alternative Accountability Framework (AAF) for schools that provide programs to serve highly at-risk students, recognizing that an alternative framework is more appropriate to measure schools serving a considerably different population from that of most schools. This school will not receive a score or tier in 2017–18. When a school is initially designated to be eligible for the AAF, the school, in consultation with DC PCSB staff, designs a set of measures aligned to specific categories of quality, either traditional and/or nontraditional and unique to the school’s program. These measures are subject to DC PCSB approval, are annually measured, and are publicly reported.
