Getting Here & Campus Information

Throughout the year, every student and many of our faculty and staff engage in service projects that support D.C. communities and residents. Indeed, Service, along with Excellence, Courage, and Conscience, is one of NCS’s four core values.

We strive to be good neighbors by managing traffic and parking thoughtfully. We ask all visitors and community members to follow the parking guidelines outlined on this page. Students, faculty, and staff park in the Cathedral garage, while visitors are welcome to use the garage or designated surface parking after 3:30 pm. We appreciate our neighbors’ patience, especially during busy drop-off and pick-up times.

NCS sustains our community connection by facilitating conversation with neighbors about developments that affect us all. A Neighborhood Liaison Committee, open to all, meets twice a year to discuss questions or concerns related to school operations. These Committee neighbors also receive periodic email updates from the School, which they are invited to pass on to fellow neighbors.

An Athletic Center Advisory Committee also meets twice a year to review specific operations at that facility. As specified by order of the D.C. Zoning Commission, the Committee is made up of representatives of neighboring community groups, NCS, and the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Foundation (PECF).
