WHERE YOU BELONG

"
I believe it is my duty to help uplift the youth of my community. The school I attended growing up in DC had a family-oriented, college-prep mission just like DPA. Once I visited DPA, I knew it was the perfect place to grow my career as an educator.
Kiyah Holloman, Dean of Culture
"
I decided to join DPA because of the training and development provided to the teachers. You can come to DPA as a new teacher and receive excellent coaching and training to help master your craft.
Rodney Brownell, STEM Teacher
"
DPA is a place where I am always learning, which is extremely important to me. My scholars also live this value by asking for feedback and looking for ways to grow.
Mariah Hudzick, Math Teacher
"
The things that Jeremiah is learning in school translate into what he can do at home, the confidence, the self-esteem. He has grown by leaps and bounds.
Ms. Williams, DPA Parent
"
My kids are thriving at DPA. They have grown dramatically and are reading at a higher level. They love coming to school.
Ms. Proctor, DPA Parent
"
My child is a completely different child since being at Digital Pioneers Academy. He’s enjoying the curriculum. The coding has really grabbed his attention.
Ms. Sanders, DPA Parent
