Last week, Middle School students welcomed guest speaker DJ Enferno (Eric Jao) for an interactive assembly exploring the art of DJing. Students had the chance to create and mix music live alongside him, getting a behind-the-scenes look at how beats, rhythm, and creativity come together. It was a fun, hands-on experience that brought music to life!

Today is Indigenous Peoples’ Day. The land where Maret is now located was home to the Nacotchtank people.

From the National Park Service: “The village of Nacotchtank (from which the name Anacostia is derived) was the largest of the three American Indian villages located in the Washington area and is believed to have been a major trading center. The people of Nacotchtank, or Anacostans, were an Algonquian-speaking people that lived along the southeast side of the Anacostia River in the area between today’s Bolling Air Force Base and Anacostia Park, in the floodplain below the eastern-most section of today’s Fort Circle Parks. A second town, Nameroughquena, most likely stood on the Potomac’s west bank, opposite of what today is Theodore Roosevelt Island. Another village existed on a narrow bluff between today’s Chesapeake and Ohio Canal and MacArthur Boulevard in the northwest section of the city.

Maret Volleyball took the court for a cause!

Today's Dig Pink game against German International brought the Maret community together to raise awareness for Breast Cancer Awareness Month and support the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Led by senior Brooklynne Worthy, the team showed its support with pink bows, ribbons, and pom poms, along with a “We Play For…” display honoring members of our community affected by breast cancer.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support the team and help make a difference!

Just one month into the school year, and our students are already taking their learning beyond the classroom!

Recently, students have been taking advantage of DC’s incredible arts community. They’ve explored Hollywood’s Golden Age through George Hurrell’s photography, discovered new perspectives through contemporary art at the Phillips Collection, and connected their Spanish lessons to a live performance of Garbo, el actor que salvó al mundo at Gala Hispanic Theatre.

With Washington, DC as our classroom, students have unique opportunities to experience the arts firsthand and bring what they’re learning to life.

Their legal note“The Alien Tort Statute and America’s Betrayal of Universal Justice,” was selected for publication in the National High School Law Review (Vol. II, Summer 2026). Their work explores the relationship between international and domestic law in the United State.

We’re thrilled to celebrate this exciting achievement and the dedication, curiosity, and hard work that went into their research. Click here to read more www.maret.org/school-news.

New connections, new friendships, and plenty of fun!

Last week, students in K–4th grade teamed up with their partner classes for get-to-know-you activities, games, and time to connect with new classmates. It was a fun opportunity for students to build relationships and spend time together outside their usual classrooms.
