The 21st Century School Fund is a founding member of the Coalition for DC Public Schools & Communities (C4DC). 

The basis of C4DC's work is found in their Six Principals for Public Education in Washington, D.C., a set of beliefs that members of the coalition developed to guide the next steps in ensuring the best possible public education system in DC. Learn more at www.c4dcpublicschools.org. 

 Recent D.C. Public Education Engagement and Studies:

Starting in 2023 the DME led the Boundary and Student Assignment Study (2024 release) which reviewed and updated attendance zones and student assignment policies to promote equitable access to quality schools.

The DME also produced the DC Public Education Master Facilities Plan (2023), which identifies long-term strategic priorities for public school facilities, including modernization, utilization, and capital investment needs.

The 2023 School Funding Study conducted by the DME evaluated the adequacy and equity of school funding mechanisms, including the Uniform Per Student Funding Formula (UPSFF), recommending adjustments to enhance instructional quality and student support throughout the District's schools.
