During the 2014-2015 school year, when DC Public Schools (DCPS) is closed for staff development, the agency will offer "DPR Fun Day," a free, single-day program that offers fun and enriching activities (such as sports and athletics, arts and crafts, and more) for children between the ages 6 and 12 years old. DPR strives to meet the needs of District families when DCPS is closed for Professional Development days.
DPR will offer the first Fun Day on Friday, October 10, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. DPR Fun Day will incorporate DPR’s “Move, Grow and Be Green” initiative, as DPR continues to plant the seeds of personal development and environmental responsibility. Please note that before and after care are not offered for DPR Fun Days.
