Best school in the city...1st time seeing the building after the renovation. Stopped by to checkout the jazz band concert. Great job

60th Reunion tour. Outstanding visit guided by the facilities director. So many neat resources to educate and train future performers and artists.

★★★★★Susan Wright

So much to see. Had a great time looking at all the Art the students has done. Looking forward to be able to buy some of the art. Some of the pieces of art are so good

★★★★★Gina Lee Thomas

My daughter is a freshman at Duke Ellington. She has wanted to attend the school since she was six years old. She LOVES it. Duke Ellington School is such a wonderful experience for these children. Kids who are driven by the arts are special. These kids find it difficult to navigate in some school environments. Ellington is a place where they not only survive…they thrive!
