Facilities
Emerson occupies an historic building in the Dupont Circle area of downtown DC. The building has 9 classrooms, a science laboratory, a reading room, a conference room, and a library/computer room where students can study or use the computers to do research on the internet. The school also has wireless internet, which is great for students who prefer to bring their own laptops to school. There is an attractive and private courtyard behind the school building. During the Spring, Summer and early Fall, some teachers will hold an occasional class in the courtyard. During the Spring of 2008, the courtyard underwent a major renovation. The new courtyard was re-opened to students and teachers on June 24, 2008.

—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.”
