Charles Barrett is committed to providing a program of academic excellence and equity. We are dedicated to a learning partnership with our students and their families. Charles Barrett is one of five international demonstration schools in the Washington, DC Metropolitan area that partners with Kennedy Center's Changing Education through the Arts (CETA) program. Through this unique partnership, which began in 2012, teachers develop their expertise in integrating the arts with the teaching of all other school subjects. Arts integration is designed to help all students learn with greater motivation and ease. For more information, please visit http://www.acps.k12.va.us/barrett/ceta/
