The Two Rivers Board of Trustees is excited to announce that after an extensive search to identify a dynamic, inspiring, and exceptional leader, the Board has selected Belicia Reaves as the next Executive Director at Two Rivers Public Charter School. Belicia has over 20 years of experience as an educator and is guided by a mission-driven approach to leadership at the executive level paired with a deep understanding for equitable change management. For over a decade, Belicia has worked with Capital City Public Charter School, first as an Instructional Coach and Curriculum Coordinator and since 2013, in a leadership capacity as the High School Principal. In 2019, she was named the DC Public Charter School Board TIERific Best Practices Awardee in the Principal category and was pivotal in the development of Capital City’s Tier 1 high school program. She has managed a multi-million dollar budget at Capital City with a focus on financial sustainability and leveraging resources and programming for equitable education opportunities. Prior to joining Capital City, Belicia was the Grade Dean at Georgetown Day School and also taught middle school at Wildwood School in Los Angeles. She holds a Master in Education from Harvard University and a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from Hampton University.

Belicia’s experience as an educator, advocate, and leader make her a wonderful fit for Two Rivers. She will be starting in her capacity of Executive Director on July 10, 2023. We could not be more excited to work in partnership with Belicia as she oversees the continued development of our Two Rivers Public Charter School network. 

Welcome to the Two Rivers crew, Belicia!
