🚆 Have you spotted us around DC?

Our new Metro bus and rail ads are officially live, helping spread the word about the opportunities waiting for students at Digital Pioneers Academy.

As more families discover DPA, demand continues to grow. We currently have a waitlist for most upper grades, but we still have a limited number of seats available for incoming 6th graders this fall.

If you are looking for a middle school where students are known, challenged, and prepared for college, now is the time to enroll your child.

📸 Keep an eye out for our new ads across the city, and if you see one, snap a photo and tag us!
