How Global Citizens Pcs compares with District of Columbia and U.S. medians
What stands out at Global Citizens Pcs
Small campus without a staffing-size advantage
Global Citizens Pcs enrolls fewer students than most District of Columbia schools, yet its student-teacher ratio is still on the heavier side of the state distribution. Small enrollment therefore does not translate into more teacher capacity per student here. That makes staffing capacity, rather than campus scale alone, the useful interpretation. The counselor, attendance, and program indicators below help show whether the pressure is narrow or part of a broader resource constraint.
A combined-grade campus has a different support burden
Global Citizens Pcs serves a combined grade span rather than a conventional elementary, middle, or high-school band. That structure can require the same campus to cover transitions, counseling needs, and programs for students at substantially different developmental stages, so a single staffing ratio deserves more caution than it would at a narrower-grade school. Federal totals show the available people and programs, but not how those resources are divided among grade levels.
Global Citizens Pcs is a small charter combined-grade school in Washington, District of Columbia, enrolling 198 students.
Class loads run heavy: 24.8:1 is larger than about 98% of District of Columbia schools and 102% above the 12.3:1 state mean, so each teacher carries more students than is typical.
Enrollment of 198 puts it in the smaller third of District of Columbia schools by headcount.
Its Resource Investment Index trails 100% of the 243 District of Columbia schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.
Its student body is led by African American (79%) and Hispanic or Latino (9%) (diversity index 36/100).
Among Washington's public schools, it stands alongside District of Columbia International School (1,654 students): Global Citizens Pcs is smaller than that campus by headcount and runs heavier classes (24.8:1 vs 11.3:1).
Global Citizens Pcs is a single-school charter district, so Global Citizens Pcs operates independently rather than alongside district-mates.
