Horrible, students are bullied, treated like prisoners and given detentions for the smallest things. I removed my child and had several parents complain about dismissive behavior of adults in the building.

In my 3 years at Dc prep Bmc I’ve been able to create a safe space & culture where students aren’t afraid to be there selves, and learn a few new things about somewhere they’ve never been before. I love being the African Percussive Music teacher here at Bmc because the positive reinforcing relationships I’ve built with these loving prepies!

I love DC PREP! I love the atmosphere and the teachers and the 2023-2025 school year has been the most involved school year and exciting school year I have experienced! Literally the best and caring staff and teachers .. Both my children attend and we have been with DC PREP Since 2016. They all feel like family!

My experience was definitely an experience! I loved how they pushed my child academically and always saw the potential. In my personal experience I didn’t feel like they valued my opinion when it came to things like putting supports in place for my child or supportive plans for my child. Overall I feel we did the best with what we had and for that I’m thankful!

In my experience at DC Prep everyone of the stress never have been extremely helpful with I mean everything and anything from my kids needing shoes and Christmas gifts, thanksgiving baskets, Covid essentials even school was virtual, you name it. My oldest daughter started DC prep in 1st grade and graduated 8th grade years ago and I’ve had 2 other children graduate dc prep as well with my last one graduating in June. This has been such a journey and couldn’t have chosen a better school for my family. DC Prep is our family, thank you always for everything.

I'm a strong advocate for DC Prep. I believe this school surpasses the bar for excellence in all fields, curriculum, safety, teaching, mental health, social awareness. I love this school.
