In School Year 2023-2024, @dcpublicschools launched 6th Grade Academies (6GA) to support our students' transition to middle school. Two years in, 6GA is increasing students’ attendance, improving their sense of belonging, and contributing to math achievement 🗒️

We're cheering on the entire @dcpublicschools community for making historic gains in our statewide assessments! 🎉 Way to go, DCPS! 💙
