To make sure our families get the information that’s needed most about COVID-19 on our school campuses, letters will be sent to those who are directly impacted when there is a new positive case. To honor our commitment to transparency at Rocketship, we will update this page to reflect the current COVID-19 cases on each campus as we become aware of new positive cases or previous cases become no longer active.

Carecorps
Every Rocketship school has designated a CareCorps team who is responsible for ensuring our families have access to the resources they need and to help them navigate the many supports throughout DC. Their mission is to support our most vulnerable families who are experiencing the destabilizing impacts of the COVID-19 crisis. CareCorps sends a brief wellness survey to all families weekly to better understand their needs. The team then follows up with direct outreach to families who indicated they need specific support. The CareCorps then connects families with the services and resources they need. To connect with your regional CareCorps, reach out to your school’s office manager.
