Welcome to the My School DC data page! This page is intended to provide aggregate information to families and schools to support data driven decisions. The first year of the My School DC common lottery took place in 2014 to determine matches for new students at all participating schools for school year 2014-15. If you seek school-specific data, please contact the school itself and refer to the School-level Data section below for public postings related to the lottery from the DC Public Charter School Board (DC PCSB) and DC Public Schools (DCPS) central office. My School DC data policies are set by the Common Lottery Board.
