On March 22, 2023, Mayor Bowser released the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) budget for Fiscal Year 2024 to Fiscal Year 2029.
In this year’s proposed budget, the MacArthur High School project includes an additional funding year to expand building capacity. The addition will align with district-wide best practices and educational standards and bring the facility in line with other DCPS comprehensive secondary facilities.
DCPS and the DC Department of General Services (DGS) will complete this addition project in three years. The addition will be
complete for School Year 2025-2026. Please note, this does not impact the school opening or operation for School Year 2023-2024.
