Cesar Chavez Public Charter Schools for Public Policy's mission is to prepare students to succeed in competitive colleges and to empower them to use public policy to create a more just, free, and equal world.

Chavez Schools is where DC's next generation of leaders, advocates, and changemakers begin their story. We serve students in grades 6 - 12 with a rigorous, public policy-focused education that doesn't just prepare scholars for what's next--it prepares them to shape what's next. 

As DC's only public policy school, we equip every student with the tools, knowledge, and real-world experiences to step into their power and transform their communities.
