Cardozo Feeder Pattern Middle School Planning Survey

dcpsschoolplanningLeave a comment

DCPS is conducting a public engagement process to determine if and when a new standalone middle school is needed for the Cardozo feeder pattern. Currently, Cardozo EC is a secondary school serving grades 6-12. If a new middle school were opened, the middle grades would phase out of Cardozo EC and Cardozo would become a 9-12 high school. The new middle school would feed Cardozo for high school.

The purpose of this survey is to solicit citywide feedback on the draft criteria and considerations to determine whether to open the school, location characteristics, and secondary program planning.

To review more information on the planning process, including relevant data and community feedback, please see: https://dcpsplanning.wordpress.com/category/cardozo-feeder-pattern/.

The feedback from this survey will be used to inform a final draft of criteria and considerations for the opening of the middle school. This proposal and a summary of survey feedback will be shared at the next Cardozo Feeder Pattern Middle School Planning Community Meeting on April 25 scheduled for 6PM-8PM at Garrison ES (1200 S St NW, Washington, DC 20009). Please contact dcps.planning@k12.dc.gov with any questions.

The survey should take around 15 minutes to complete and is due Friday, April 19, 2019.
