AppleTree Institute for Education Innovation

AppleTree Institute for Education Innovation (ATI) is pioneering an innovative education reform initiative that has the potential to dramatically change the way policy makers fund and early childhood education providers implement public education strategies to close the achievement gap in the District of Columbia and nationally. The initiative comprises three core efforts: (i) expansion of the AppleTree Early Learning Public Charter School (AELPCS) to reach more than 700 3- and 4-year old children in the District of Columbia and to serve as a national model for early childhood education; (ii) codification and refinement of Every Child Ready (ECR), ATI’s ground-breaking, evidence-based instructional approach, to support stream-lined, economically feasible implementation in AELPCS and other early childhood providers and (iii) conclusive and compelling longitudinal evaluation of ECR by Dr. Craig Ramey, author of the seminal Abecedarian study on early childhood education.

AppleTree Institute is located in Washington, DC, near Catholic University and in walking distance to the Brookland Metro. Free parking is also available.

AppleTree Early Learning Public Charter School

AppleTree Early Learning Public Charter School (AELPCS) is an independent public charter school open to all three- and four- year olds in the District of Columbia. The school’s mission is to close the achievement gap by providing young children with the social, emotional and cognitive foundations that will enable them to succeed in school. We believe that all children are capable of attaining high academic standards, but that many start formal schooling lacking the basic skills that are predictive of later academic success. AELPCS provides young children with an intensive, engaging, and appropriate early education program that ensures children attain the language, early literacy, and behavioral skills they need to transition successfully into kindergarten.

AELPCS believes that skilled, caring and enthusiastic teachers and staff are the keys to our children’s success. We provide professionals with a tremendous opportunity to be part of an innovative, supportive and effective educational community.
