Developers to Present Proposals for Stevens Elementary School Project to Community

A meeting is to be held at 6:30 pm on Thursday, June 11 at the Francis-Stevens Education Campus and the public’s comments will be collected.

The Stevens School is located at 21st and L Streets NW and was built in 1868 serving as the first modern school in the District built for African American students and named after Thaddeus Stevens—the motivating force and major abolitionist pushing Lincoln on slavery.
