History

Janney Elementary School opened in 1925, as:

the last word in modern schoolhouse construction. It will have two distinctive features which other buildings of its type in the District lack – a combination gymnasium and assembly hall and adequate outdoor play space.^[4]

In 1926, principal Blanche Pulizzi provided space for Tenleytown's public library. In 1932, the west wing was completed. A renovation started in 2010, and was completed in 2011. A separate renovation took place in 2012, that expanded the west wing of the school, and added classrooms.^[5]^[6]

It was listed by the D.C. Historic Preservation Review Board, in 2009. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, in 2010.

Its principal is Alysia Lutz.^[7]

The District of Columbia itself, and Virginia's incorporated cities, are county equivalents. Virginia's incorporated cities are listed under their surrounding county. The incorporated cities bordering more than one county (Alexandria, Falls Church and Fredericksburg) are listed under the county they were part of before incorporation as a city. Some unincorporated areas and census-designated places like Silver Spring and Bethesda in Maryland, Reston in Virginia, as well as the County of Arlington in Virginia are also treated as city-like entities (or principal cities) even though they have not been legally incorporated as such.
