They won’t be moving but since they are already approved for expansion, they might be looking for more space in next 5-6 years if demand continues and increases for the school.

I thought the plan was for DCI to take over the LAMB space at Walter Reed?

There is no talk of any DCI expansion yet or how that would happen that I know of.
Current DCI campus is at Walter Reed.
Just looked at their website and said expected enrollment by 2019-2020 is 1500 students. They are approved to expand to almost 2200 students by 2024-2025.

Yes i know they are at Walter Reed but so is LAMB (I think 3,4,5 grade?). I was under the impression that the plan was for DCI to take over that space as their enrollment grows, and as LAMB consolidated into one campus. Although my current understanding of that situation is that the lawsuit with the neighbors is still going on so who knows if/when that would happen.

;th and 5th, not 3rd. That would only net DCI about 10-15 more seats (multiply by 7 grades).

When were they approved for expansion? Link?

The link to the charter agreement no longer works for some reason. But below is quote from old DCUM thread. For 2018-2019 I think approval number was somewhere between 1,000-1400 students. But they are approved for 2,156 by 2024-2025.

Also, charters almost always secure an enrollment ceiling increase before identifying a location, in part because they need to project more students to secure a new facility loan.

"DCI began operation in 2014 under authorization from DC PCSB. In Section 3.2(C) of the school’s Amended and Restated Operator Direct Agreement, it states “DCI shall maintain an enrollment of no more than 215 students in the first Academic Year and
no more than 2,156 students in subsequent Academic Years substantially in accordance with [its] Schedule I.”
The school’s Schedule I, an attachment to its agreement, specifies by year the maximum number of students that DCI was permitted to enroll between school year (SY) 2014-15 and SY 2018-19. However, after SY 2018-19 the Schedule I jumps to SY
2024-25 to specify that DCI is allowed a total maximum enrollment of 2,156 at maturation. “
