I'm so sad my kid is currently in 5th grade and can't stay here forever. Both her and her brother have had outstanding teachers that have effectly managed their classrooms and despite the large sizes seem to have gotten to know my kids rather well so that my kids can both learn but also develop socially. The administration is kind and caring, support and special education is amazing and has worked seamlessly in integrating my kid's need for small group/1:1 help while also giving enough classroom time. The community of families is large and organized and the school has many engaging events but also does an incredible job creating opportunities for students to be stewards of their school, through safety patrol, yearbook, farmers market, etc. This is the elementary school of dreams!!! How lucky we are to be one of the pack!

I have very mixed feelings about this school.

This is not the worst school in the country. And, despite its problems, it is one of the best in DC. But it is certainly not at the level of some schools that have better funding and a more collaborative, respectful approach to working with parents.

Everything about Stoddert has been wonderful. Excellent, dedicated teachers, wonderful before and aftercare program run by the PTO and kind and committed parents of current and former students. Great staff. Great special education services. My 4th-grade daughter has attended since preschool and loves going every day. Her teachers have engaged and motivated her and exposed her to a wide range of ideas.

Very engaged community, this is a neighborhood school with a lot of student resources: garden program, computer lab, outdoor fields and off-site art education. The school needs to improve its communication with parents. Fantastic teachers, large class sizes, and updated technology/facilities. Very pleased with the way my children have learned as part of the Stoddert community.

Stoddert completed its LEED Gold facility with geothermal powered heating and cooling, a full-sized gym and wonderful technology amenities. Now it has a world-class facility to augment its world class educators. This school is raising the bar for public education in Washington DC!
