Summary

Leckie Education Campus is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Washington, DC, with 458 students enrolled. The school is part of the District of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS) district, which is ranked 22 out of 46 districts in DC and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Leckie Education Campus has consistently underperformed compared to the DCPS district and the overall District of Columbia in standardized test scores for both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics. For the 2024-2025 school year, Leckie's proficiency rates were 23.3% in ELA and 11.5% in Math, compared to 42.5% and 30.8% for DCPS, and 37.6% and 26.4% for the District of Columbia. The school has a low ranking among DC elementary schools, ranging from 99th out of 128 schools in 2024-2025 to as high as 39th out of 97 schools in 2014-2015. Its SchoolDigger rating has also fluctuated between 1 and 3 stars over the years, currently at 1 star.

Leckie Education Campus's performance is significantly worse than the nearby public schools, both district-run and charter schools, in academic achievement. For example, in 2024-2025, Hendley Elementary School had 12.4% proficiency in ELA and 9.9% in Math, while Simon Elementary School had 13.8% and 8% respectively. The charter schools in the area, such as Ingenuity Prep PCS and Center City PCS - Congress Heights, outperformed Leckie Education Campus by a wide margin. The school's inconsistent performance and lower performance of its subgroups suggest the need for a comprehensive review and implementation of strategies to improve educational outcomes for all students at Leckie Education Campus.

My kids have been attending Leckie for the last 5 years. We have always had a great experience. That is until they assigned a new principal. The principal has no interest in the children at all. She is not very friendly and a lot of activities are no longer in place to encourage the children educationally or socially. I am highly disappointed. Close Quote
