Fort Davis Park is a Ward 7 neighborhood anchored by Fort Davis Recreation Center on Alabama Avenue SE, one of Ward 7's community hubs for after-school sports and programming. One school serves the immediate residential community, with the Kingman Park and Marshall Heights school networks accessible via Alabama Avenue and Benning Road Metrobus routes. The Fort Davis area's proximity to Fort Dupont Park gives school-age children access to one of DC's largest forested recreation areas. Ward 7 residents receive a priority point for Ward 7 schools.
Ward 7 families can apply to any DC public or charter school through the unified lottery. The application window opens in November at schoolchoice.dc.gov.
