Each of the three student “cohorts” at the Social Justice School are assigned a specific bathroom to use. At both Meridian and Social Justice, the hallway water fountains have been shut down. Social Justice emphasizes the point with a sign near the disabled fountains: “NOTICE: Do Not Use.” At Meridian, students have their own water bottles and can fill them at specialized water dispensers. An automatically strange educational challenge has been made even stranger at the Social Justice School, which has never actually functioned under non-pandemic conditions. The school received its approval from the D.C. Public Charter School Board over the summer and opened its doors for the first time this fall.
