A BOLDER FUTURE FOR DC SCHOOLS.
What are Bold Schools?
EmpowerK12 believes that the District of Columbia can be the first urban city to close the achievement gap in this decade when schools take bold action to serve their students furthest from opportunity. Bold Schools celebrates the schools that support high at-risk student populations and are on track to close the achievement gap in DC.
Bold Improvement Schools
Bold Improvement Schools serve a high at-risk student population and have at-risk student group growth rates higher than students from more privileged backgrounds at DC’s schools serving predominantly high-income families.
Bold Performance Schools
Bold Performance Schools serve a high at-risk student population and have combined math and English language arts proficiency rates dramatically higher than schools with similar demographics.
