About the School

Please fill out this form to document your student's tardiness or absence from school: SY 24-25 Absence Form Welcome to Shirley Chisholm Elementary School! ¡Bienvenidos a la Escuela Primaria de Shirley Chisholm! We are grateful you are here. Led by our families and PTA leaders, our school community engaged in a transformational process to dismantle former slave owner, John Tyler, as our school’s namesake. With bold initiative and a spirit of unity, we committed to affirm our diverse identity and our true values. On January 9th, 2024, the DC Council voted and approved our school name change from John Tyler to Shirley Chisholm Elementary School .
