The Beauvoir School is a coeducational primary school on the grounds of the Washington National Cathedral in Washington D.C., serving students from pre-kindergarten through 3rd grade. In 1933, it was founded for students who would later move on to St. Albans (boys) or the National Cathedral School (girls), which serve grades 4-12.

Like the Cathedral itself and the affliated schools, Beauvoir is overseen by the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Foundation.[4]

History

In 1933, Beauvoir was established as a "separate and independent school in the Cathedral system" by the Cathedral Chapter.[5] The principal Elizabeth Glascock Taylor, and the faculty were motivated to "make children's education more exciting so that their students would be inspired to learn."[6]

Beauvoir was initially a segregated, all-white school, but accepted its first black student in 1952.[7]

In 2008, school employees discovered that a teacher had been producing child pornography featuring students. After five years on the FBI's Most Wanted List, the former teacher was apprehended and sentenced to 25 years in prison.[8]

In 2012, a new playground was completed. It was designed to appeal to children under 10 of varying ages and abilities, and featured in the Wall Street Journal.[9]

Student body

During the 2015-16 school year, Beauvor's K-3 student body was 60.5% white, 23.5% multiracial, 11.5% black, 3.9% Asian, and 0.6% Hispanic.[10]

Beauvoir graduates have priority access to St. Albans and National Cathedral School. In 2018, Beauvoir reported that their students had a 90% acceptance rate at those two highly rated, selective schools.[11]
