Join us on Saturday, May 20 from 6-9pm as we recognize Head of School Karen Dresden for her transformational leadership and celebrate 23 years of Capital City Public Charter School.
*Please note: This is an 18 and older event only.*
At this event, we will recognize and celebrate the incredible impact that Karen has made on DC students. This summer, Karen will be stepping down as Head of School of Capital City, which she co-founded in 2000. The first parent-founded public charter school in DC, Capital City began with just 135 students and now serves more than 1,000 students in PreK-12th grades.
A portion of your ticket helps support our enrichment programs and whole child approach, both initiatives that are dear to Karen's heart. Additional sponsorship packages are available here.
Refreshments and food will be served. Cocktail attire is encouraged.
