"Since its inception in 1997, Friendship Public Charter School has enabled thousands of low-income students to become real achievers. Friendship applies its unique educational model with winning results — Friendship consistently improves academic performance, educates the "whole child," offers families wraparound social services, and directs students to college and a solid, rewarding future."

Friendship Public Charter School is the DC area’s largest public charter school, serving more than 4,000 students from pre-school to 12th grade on five campuses. CEDC has enjoyed a long partnership with Friendship and has produced many of their newsletters, handbooks, and banners.
