Sheridan School

Address: 4400 36th St NW, Washington, DC 20008, USA

“It is hard to put into words what makes this school so special- it certainly is in part the ability to synthesize the mission of the school into concrete practices. The school is a Progressive model in educational theory. Starting in kindergarten they foster intellectual exploration by offering space for risk taking, encouraging creative problem solving, valuing the diversity of perspectives and knowing and working with others to complete task of varying degrees of complexity. There is respect for multiculturalism, diversity and inclusion that is evident from the moment you walk through the doors, and which presents itself throughout the curriculum. They have a Mountain Campus in Luray, Virginia which too is integral to the school’s fundamental belief in outdoor education and environmental justice. The school really ticks off so many important boxes for me- but in truth what is most important is the way my now 3rd grader demonstrates her love of learning, her love of Sheridan and her love of the wonderful friends she has made there. She is genuinely happy at Sheridan, and that is such a sweet relief for me.”

Saint Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral

Address: 2815 36th St NW, Washington, DC 20007, USA

“The church is breathtaking inside. Giving those that appreciate fine Byzantine mosaics a beautiful exhibit of Greek Orthodox icon mosaics in the DC area. If you come for the liturgy you will hear amazing chanting and learn a great deal about the faith. Tours are done during the festival season and for those interested in renting space for events they also have a hall. The church also has education programs including Bible study and Greek Language on site and online.”
