In 2025, Early Childhood Academy (ECA) proudly marks 20 years of nurturing young minds and shaping future leaders. Located in Southeast Washington, DC, ECA is a small public charter school serving students from Pre-K3 through 3rd grade. Rooted in the Washington Highlands community, ECA remains the last remaining prekindergarten through third grade public charter school in the area offering a program uniquely designed to meet the needs of young children.
 
Each classroom is led by a highly qualified teacher and associate teacher, delivering personalized instruction aligned with the Common Core State Standards and Early Learning Standards. Our full-day, ten-month program equips students with the academic, social, and emotional foundation they need for lifelong success.
 
As we celebrate 20 years of impact, we’re also investing in the next generation of learners. Your gift will support essential classroom technology upgrades that enrich learning and expand opportunities for every student.
