Whittle School & Studios is the first truly modern institution serving children from ages three to 18, and will exceed the standards of learning that have become expected. Run by the upper echelon of the international education world, the school aims to better the lives of those students who attend and, beyond these campuses, contribute to the cause of education on every continent.
Whittle School & Studios will be one school with campuses in more than 30 of the world’s leading cities. At capacity, they will boast a diverse student body of more than 90,000 full-time students and hundreds of thousands of part-time students, with a single faculty of over 10,000, tied together by a common curriculum that will be adapted to local laws and needs. The campuses will all work collaboratively through constant exchanges and online activities supported by a unique global headquarters, creating an organization linked with a new collective intelligence unlike any single-site institution in the world.
The Washington, DC campus will be located at 4000 Connecticut Ave in Van Ness. With a capacity for approximately 2,500 students, offering both day and boarding options, will be designed by renowned architect Renzo Piano, marking his first project in the District. While the campus is under renovation, Whittle School & Studios will be opening a Parent Information Center at Mazza Gallery in Chevy Chase. To learn more, visit whittleschool.org.
