Paul Public Charter School

Description

• The mission of Paul Public Charter School is to educate our students and to develop in them the capacity to be responsible citizens, independent thinkers, and leaders. Paul PCS embodies the belief that all children can learn and benefit from our Triple A Program, offering high-quality Academics, Arts, and Athletics delivered within the context of a nurturing and structured school environment. Paul Public Charter School is named after Edward Paul. Edward Paul was a principal and acting Superintendent in the DC Public School system. Born in Wakefield, New Hampshire, on August 1, 1855, he attended grade school in New Hampshire and Massachusetts. He entered Dartmouth College in 1872 and graduated four years later with high honors. On April 3, 1888, Mr. Paul was injured in an accident which resulted in his death. His death was recognized throughout the community as a great tragedy. Paul Junior High School was named in Edward Pauls honor. The school was a traditional DC Public School and was started as a branch of MacFarland Junior High. It became a separate school in September 1929 when it moved to the old Brightwood building on Georgia Avenue. The present Paul PCS building opened in February 1930, later adding the north and south wings in 1932 and 1938 respectively. In 2000, the school was awarded its charter becoming the first conversion public charter school in DC. Today, Paul PCS is growing into a full fledged 6-12 college preparatory charter school and we're excited about the future!
