NEW! The Miner Mutual Aid Network

The Miner Mutual Aid Network unites people and resources to support the Miner community during the COVID-19 crisis. Together, we give and receive assistance because no individual or family should be left to fend for themselves.

To give or receive support, please visit the Miner Mutual Aid webpage.
Updated: Monday, May 11, 2020

Classes are cancelled for the remainder of the 2019-2020 School Year - Distance Learning will continue through May 29. School ends May 29.
Click here for the DCPS Distance Learning Portal

Distance Learning Packets for each grade level prepared by DCPS's Office of Teaching are available online through the Distance Learning Portal link above. They can also be picked up in person at Miner from 8:30 am - 2:00 pm on the following dates:
  • ​Tuesday, May 12
  • Wednesday, May 13
Teacher's Office Hours: Beginning on Tuesday, March 24th, all teachers and staff will have office hours while they telework so that students and families can reach out for assistance with their Distance Learning Packets.  Some teachers will attempt to deliver new content via blended learning platforms.  Teachers will reach out via Class Dojo, email, or text message to inform you of their hours. Principal Jackson will also post them on Class Dojo for all K-5 teachers.  

If you need additional assistance or are unable to reach your child's teacher during Distance Learning, please feel free to reach out to AP Townsend (camille.townsend@k12.dc.gov) and Principal Jackson (bruce.jackson@k12.dc.gov) who will be happy to assist.
