The Bridge District is a Ward 8 neighborhood along the Anacostia River, taking its name from the 11th Street Bridge Park project that is transforming the riverfront between SE DC and Anacostia. One school serves the area, with Anacostia's broader school network accessible via Good Hope Road and MLK Ave SE. The ongoing riverfront development is expected to bring improved community infrastructure to this Ward 8 corridor. DC's lottery equity provisions apply fully to Bridge District families seeking schools across the city.
Ward 8 families can apply to any DC public or charter school through the unified lottery. The application window opens in November at schoolchoice.dc.gov.
