2. School Finder
Start your school search by using the School Finder. Each student can apply to up to 12 schools on the My School DC application. Search by address, grade, and program type to find DCPS and public charter schools near you. You can also identify your DCPS in-boundary schools using this tool. An in-boundary school is a DCPS school that a student has a right to attend in kindergarten through Grade 12 based on a student’s home address without submitting a My School DC application.
