Overview

Mission

We are a learning community where every student of every race, socioeconomic status, home language, and ability prepares to thrive in college, career, and life. Together, we create a more just and kind world.

What it reported doing in 2024

E.l. Haynes provides a rigorous college preparatory curriculum for students in grades pre-k through 12; specials and electives including language (spanish), dance, music, and art, and several advanced placement courses in the high school. We operate on a year-round calendar with an additional 1,000 hours of academic and extracurricular programming beyond the 1,200 hours that every dc student receives. Intensive learning experiences deepen understanding at all grade levels, and travel opportunities in high school broaden students' experiences.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 83% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and assets have declined or grown slowly.
