DPR/DCPL Learning Hubs
To support students' continued learning while school is out, Mayor Muriel Bowser has launched Learning Hubs for DC students.
With support from DPR and DCPL, Learning Hubs will provide families in the District with safe spaces for their children to engage in supervised independent activities. These spaces will provide students with access to internet (and devices in some locations), and offer recommended independent activities based on age group and host site. This Learning Hub will serve students who are rising Kindergarten through 5th graders.
