That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Jersey City Global Charter School a distant remainder — means Jersey City Global Charter School-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary.

Jersey City Global Charter School chronic absenteeism rate is 9.9% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)

chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
