Notice of Charter Review – E.L. Haynes PCS

The District of Columbia Public Charter School Board (DC PCSB) announces an opportunity for the public to submit comments on Euphemia L. Haynes Public Charter School (E.L. Haynes PCS), which is up for a charter review on April 8, 2024. Pending DC PCSB staff’s analysis, the Board may elect to do one of the following: 1) continue the school’s charter without conditions, 2) conditionally continue the school’s charter by imposing annual or interim targets or requirements it must meet, or 3) commence charter revocation proceedings.

E.L. Haynes PCS is up for its 20-year charter review. The school operates three campuses across two facilities in Wards 1 and 4. The school serves students in grades pre-kindergarten 3 – 12. Its mission is: “We are a learning community where every student—of every race, socioeconomic status, home language, and ability—prepares to thrive in college, career, and life. Together, we create a more just and kind world.” 

Pursuant to the School Reform Act, D.C. Code 38-1802 et seq., DC PCSB is required to review each DC public charter school’s performance at least once every five years.
