Janney Elementary School

What Janney Elementary School does

Janney Elementary School is a public Pre-K through 5th grade elementary school operating within the District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) system, located at 4130 Albemarle Street NW in Washington, DC. Founded in 1920, the school serves nearly 700 students and celebrated its centennial anniversary in 2020. Core curriculum includes standard subjects plus art, music, technology, physical education, and Spanish, delivered through a Responsive Classroom approach with a model inclusion program for students with special needs.

Beyond the regular school day, Janney operates the Janney+ umbrella program — a parent-run non-profit (Tax ID: 82-101-5792) offering extended day and enrichment services. Janney+ products include Before Care (Morning JAC, 7:30-8:35 AM), After Care (Afternoon JAC, 3:15-6:00 PM), the Enrichment Program (JEP) covering science, art, cooking, dance, and music, the Language Program (JELP) offering French, Spanish, and Chinese immersion, and seasonal Summer Camp programming (Discovery Camp, Adventure Camp, Camp Days) with a Counselor-in-Training track.

The school's revenue model is twofold: institutional funding flows from DCPS appropriations for core educational delivery, while Janney+ generates tuition-based revenue from before/after care ($78-$638/month), language programs ($1,562-$2,130/year), and summer camps ($550-$600/week). GTM is entirely community-driven via the school's website, parent listserv (Janney Listserv on Groups.io), PTA communications, DCPS district channels, and the Campsite self-serve registration portal. Distribution is confined to the Washington, DC metropolitan area.
