High Quality Schools Campaign (HQSC)

The High Quality Schools Campaign (HQSC) is a pilot program launched by DC School Reform Now (DCSRN), which aims to educate parents about the characteristics of a high quality school, principal and teacher through parent-friendly materials, workshops, school tours, out-of-boundary and charter application support, school enrollment support and parent advocacy training.

In the 2011-2012 school year, DCSRN will be working with the parents of exiting fifth grade students in five partner schools—three traditional public schools and two charter public schools. They are: DC Scholars Stanton Elementary, CW Harris Elementary, Simon Elementary, Arts & Technology Academy Public Charter School and DC Bilingual Public Charter School.
