AJE is excited to share this information about D.C. Public Schools (DCPS) and transportation to summer meal sites!

D.C. Public School (DCPS) families will no longer have to pay for their Uber rides to meal sites this summer after the school district announced it has partnered with the ride-share company to cover transportation costs.

The free rides will be available to eight different meal sites at DCPS facilities every weekday from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. through August 27, as stated in a press release. Uber users who are 18 and older will be allocated a $40 round-trip voucher to the closest meal site and are limited to six round-trips between July and August, according to DCPS.

Families can redeem the DCPS voucher to the following locations:

  • Cardozo Education Campus | 1200 Clifton Street NW
  • Thomson Elementary School | 1200 L Street NW
