You are correct.


School Without Walls HS offers German, building out a full series of courses in collaboration with the Goethe Institute. It's by no means on solid footing yet but a promising development.

Once/if there is a solid funding stream for German at SWW, I would think the best candidate to ever offer German in middle school would be Francis-Stevens MS. But that is reading tea leaves...


And going to SWW @ FS is no guarantee of gaining admission to SWW HS.

If you want German instruction, contact the Goethe Institut. I bet they have classes or else a list of local options. I don't know of any DC public or public charter that offers German. I suspect the demand or perceived demand is low.

If your child is ALREADY taking German, call the MCPS Language office and ask for options.

If I can suggest something, be super respectful and grateful for every little favor. No one takes a job at the central office to deal with irate parents.


This is the DC school board.

This probably doesn't help, but I can only think of a few privates that offer German.
