Mission Statement

The overarching tenet of DC VOICE is that everyone in the community is needed to raise academic achievement. Consequently, the DC VOICE mission is to inform and mobilize the public to hold both the schools and the community accountable for providing high quality teaching and learning for all.

Description

DC VOICE, (District Community Voices Organized and Informed for Change in Education) is a growing city-wide collaborative of teachers, principals, parents/guardians, youth, schools and school system personnel, community-based organizations, policy-makers and power-brokers committed to strengthen the public voice in public education.

Our aim is to build a spirit of hope, opportunity and community among students and their families and the many activists throughout the city who want to help raise academic achievement.

To assure that each DC public school has a fair chance at offering its students a high quality education, we focus on the conditions and supports for quality teaching and learning, the most critical ingredients in education.

Join with DC VOICE to give voice to the hopes and dreams of those who want an opportunity for a quality public education.
