We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

• INGENUITY PREP PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOL IS A SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY DEDICATED TO ACADEMIC RIGOR AND CIVIC LEADERSHIP, PREPARING STUDENTS FOR THE PATH TO THE COLLEGES AND CAREERS OF THEIR CHOOSING. WITH THIS AIM, THE CHARTER SCHOOL OPENED IN WASHINGTON, DC, IN AUGUST OF 2013 AND HAS EXPENDED TO NOW SERVE OVER 800 STUDENTS IN PRESCHOOL THROUGH 8TH GRADE AND HAS A STAFF OF MORE THAN 160. INGENUITY PREP IS ORGANIZED INTO THREE ACADEMIES: EARLY CHILDHOOD ACADEMY (SERVING GRADES PRESCHOOL THROUGH KINDERGARTEN), ELEMENTARY SCHOOL ACADEMY (SERVING GRADES 1 THROUGH 4), AND MIDDLE SCHOOL ACADEMY (SERVING GRADES 5 THROUGH 8). WE PREPARE OUR STUDENTS FOR SUCCESS IN COLLEGE AND IN LIFE. WE SET HIGH STANDARDS AND STRIVE TO CULTIVATE A LOVE OF LEARNING IN EVERY STUDENT. WE ARE A PLACE WHERE STUDENTS CAN LEARN, ESTABLISH DEEP RELATIONSHIPS AND PREPARE TO BECOME IMPACTFUL CIVIC LEADERS. THE CORNERSTONES OF INGENUITY PREP'S PROGRAM ARE: RIGOROUS CONTENT AND INDIVIDUALIZED INSTRUCTION - WE START BY SETTING HIGH ACADEMIC STANDARDS FOR OUR STUDENTS, AND CREATING THE CIRCUMSTANCES FOR THEM TO ACHIEVE ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE. WE BELIEVE THAT THE BEST WAY TO DO THIS IS BY LEVERAGING A ROBUST CURRICULUM AND CONSISTENTLY DELIVERING WELL-PLANNED, HIGH-QUALITY LESSONS. WE ARE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH OUR GOALS BY BEING RESPONSIVE TO STUDENT DATA, MAINTAINING LOW TEACHER-TO-STUDENT RATIOS SO THAT STUDENTS ARE ALWAYS GETTING PERSONALIZED AND SMALL GROUP LEARNING, ENABLING TEACHER CONTENT SPECIALIZATION AS EARLY AS KINDERGARTEN SO THAT OUR TEACHERS ARE TRUE EXPERTS IN THE SUBJECTS THAT THEY TEACH, AND INTENTIONALLY LEVERAGING TECHNOLOGY TO EVEN FURTHER PERSONALIZEAND ACCELERATE STUDENT LEARNING. CIVIC LEADERSHIP - WE BELIEVE THAT ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE - WHILE VERY IMPORTANT - IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO PREPARE STUDENTS FOR THE DEMANDS OF 21ST CENTURY LEADERSHIP. BUILDING CIVIC LEADERS IS CORE TO OUR MISSION. WE WANT TO EQUIP STUDENTS TO PURSUE THEIR PASSIONS AND BE EMPOWERED TO THINK, SPEAK, AND ACT POSITIVELY ON BEHALF OF THEMSELVES, THEIR COMMUNITY, THE COUNTRY, AND THE WORLD. BEGINNING IN PRE-K, CIVIC LEADERSHIP CLASS TIME AND ACTIVITIES ARE INTENTIONALLY BUILT INTO OUR SCHEDULE. IN OUR EARLY GRADES, WE FOCUS ON SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL INSTRUCTION SO THAT STUDENTS BUILD SKILLS IN EMPATHY, RESILIENCE, AND SELF-ADVOCACY. AS OUR STUDENTS GET OLDER, WE CONTINUE TO BUILD ON SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL SKILLS WHILE ALSO HAVING STUDENTS ENGAGE WITH SPECIFIC SOCIAL JUSTICE ISSUES AND PROVIDING THEM WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO ENGAGE WITH THOSE ISSUES IN THEIR COMMUNITY. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN OUR 4TH GRADERS LEARNED ABOUT OUR FOOD DESERT IN WARD 8, THEY PLANNED A FOOD DRIVE AND DELIVERED THE PROCEEDS TO LOCAL FOOD BANKS. ENRICHMENT - WE PROVIDE DAILY OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO PURSUE INTEREST AREAS OUTSIDE OF TRADITIONAL ACADEMICS. OUR ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS START IN PRE-K WITH ART AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND BUILD THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL WHERE WE ADD MUSIC AND EXPANDED SCIENCE AND SOCIAL STUDIES CLASSES. ENRICHMENTS ARE OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO BUILD KNOWLEDGE IN AREAS OF PASSION, WHICH IN TURN FUEL MOTIVATION AND FOSTER GROWTH MINDSET. WE BELIEVE STRONG ENRICHMENT SUPPORTS STUDENT GROWTH AND MOTIVATION ACROSS ALL PARTS OF THE SCHOOL EXPERIENCE. IN ADDITION TO THE CORE COMPONENTS OF OUR DAY-TO-DAY PROGRAM, THEMES OF COMMUNITY, RELATIONSHIPS, AND EQUITY OF ACCESS RUN THROUGH EVERY PART OF OUR SCHOOL. THESE PRINCIPLES ARE CORE TO OUR SCHOOL'S IDENTITY: COMMUNITY AND RELATIONSHIPS: COMMUNITY AND RELATIONSHIPS ARE INTEGRAL PARTS OF ACADEMIC AND PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT. OUR TEACHERS TAKE TIME TO BUILD MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS WITH STUDENTS, WORKING INTENTIONALLY TO GET TO KNOW THEM AS PEOPLE. WE ALSO HOLD UP FAMILIES AS CRITICAL MEMBERS OF OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY. WE BELIEVE IN CULTIVATING THEM AS PARTNERS AND PROVIDING THEM WITH TOOLS AND RESOURCES TO SUPPORT STUDENTS TO MEET THEIR GOALS AND REALIZE THEIR DREAMS. FURTHER, WE WORK INTENTIONALLY TO SUPPORT STUDENTS TO BUILD THEIR OWN COMMUNITY AT SCHOOL THROUGH SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING ACTIVITIES AND RESTORATIVE PRACTICE TO SUPPORT COMMUNICATING COMMUNALLY WITH AND TO ANYONE IN THE INGENUITY PREP COMMUNITY. LAST, BUT NOT LEAST, WE ARE COMMITTED,ACTIVE PARTICIPANTS IN OUR WARD 8 COMMUNITY. EQUITY OF ACCESS: THERE IS STILL TOO LARGE A DIVIDE IN OUR COUNTRY BETWEEN THE EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES OF STUDENTS FROM DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES AND BACKGROUNDS. AT INGENUITY PREP WE STRIVE TO PROVIDE THE SOUTHEAST DC COMMUNITY WITH A SCHOOL THAT LEVELS THE EDUCATIONAL PLAYING FIELD FOR ITS STUDENTS, PROVIDING THEM WITH HIGH QUALITY INSTRUCTION AND RICH EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES, EQUIPPING THEM TO SUCCEED AT THE SAME HIGH LEVELS AS OTHER STUDENTS IN THE US AND IN OTHER COUNTRIES.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
