Summary

KIPP DC - Northeast Academy PCS is a public charter middle school at 1375 Mount Olivet Road NE in Washington, DC, serving 345 students in grades 5–8 within the KIPP DC PCS network. The network itself ranks in the bottom third of DC districts, but KIPP Northeast is clearly one of its stronger campuses. After ranking in the low 70s statewide during 2016–2018, the school declined to the 17th percentile by 2023–2024. The most recent 2025–2026 ranking shows a strong rebound to the 43rd percentile (38th of 67 DC middle schools, 2 stars), suggesting a possible recovery.

In 2025–2026, ELA proficiency reached 29.5% and math 18.7% — well above the KIPP DC PCS network averages (21.9% ELA, 15.2% math) but below DC state averages of 39.6% and 28.2%. Year-over-year gains are substantial: ELA jumped 12.6 points and math rose 7.5 points, while state averages improved only about 2 points. Grade-level patterns show 6th grade is the weakest year in both subjects, while 8th-grade ELA proficiency (39.0%) is more than double the 6th-grade rate (19.1%). The school is notably effective for historically underserved students: low-income students rank at the 67th percentile statewide and African American students at the 61st percentile — both above the school's overall 43rd percentile.

Per-pupil spending is $27,018 with a 12.6 student-teacher ratio — a middle-ground position locally. It spends more than nearby public schools Eliot-Hine Middle School ($24,747) and Stuart-Hobson Middle School ($26,421) — both part of the District of Columbia Public Schools system — but less than several area charters like Friendship PCS - Woodridge International Middle and DC Prep PCS - Edgewood Middle School. Among nearby schools, Washington Latin PCS - Anna Julia Cooper Middle School stands out (73.4% ELA, 53.0% math), while Two Rivers PCS - Young Middle School is the closest comparison — KIPP Northeast trails in ELA (29.5% vs. 32.3%) but leads in math (18.7% vs. 15.4%). Science remains a red flag at just 1.2% proficiency versus the 12.1% DC average. The overall picture: a school in the middle of a positive turnaround — below state averages, but with real momentum and strong outcomes for the students it serves.
