Founding Classroom Aide Position

Who We Are

Capital Village is a network of micro-schools that puts students first.

Every student is different. But time and time again, they cite the same key issues when it comes to school: They want more authenticity, more skills that are relevant to their everyday lives, and above all, more agency in their own learning experiences. Without these, school fails students - and we believe they deserve better.

Capital Village Schools is born out of the urgent need to rethink the "one size fits all" model of American education. Each Capital Village School will create an environment where all students, regardless of background or circumstance, are propelled toward greatness in college, career, and life. With only 160 students at each school at full capacity, our intentionally small communities will focus on personalizing the learning experience and serving the whole child. Grounded in the principles of EL Education (formerly known as Expeditionary Learning), our students will master academic content through engaging social justice-focused projects. Our first campus, a middle school, is slated to open in Washington, DC, in August 2020.
