About

Alexandria's Pre-K through 8th grade school, offering the International Baccalaureate® (IB) Middle Years Programme and Primary Years Programme.

Story

Jefferson-Houston School is located on the west side of Alexandria's Old Town, near the King Street Metro Station. The school is dedicated to two prominent Americans: Thomas Jefferson, third president of the United States, and Charles Hamilton Houston, lawyer and humanitarian, who was a pioneer in the movement to integrate the District of Columbia Public Schools. The school is known for its dedicated teaching staff, its academic initiatives, and its strong community ties. Our school symbol is the "Jaguar" and our school colors are burgundy and tan. The original school building was built in 1970. It was replaced by a new, state-of-the-art building in September 2014.

I don't agree with this last post. Yes, the teachers are great but so are the staff, such as the social worker, librarian, and music instructors. They are creative, thoughtful, and put the students first. Our girls are big fans of the school and so are we!

I go to this school. It is AMAZING! The middle school teachers rock. they are very tough on you, but that is because they always see the potential in you and want to bring it our. Mr. Deans( the seventh, eighth, and algebra math teacher) and Mr. Seward( the seventh grade history teacher and the eighth grade civics teacher) are nuts though, but they are excellent teachers. We have a very beautiful facility, including a computer room full of Mac computers. I would totally recommend it if you are looking for a high level IB involved curriculum. Fore Warning: This school has not been accredited, but the Seventh Grader here are determined to change that! GO TO JH!! JH JAGUARS ROCK!!
