Summary:

Latin American Montessori Bilingual PCS is the only school in this data set — a single elementary public charter school in Washington, DC, serving grades PK through 5 with 572 students. Because the school shares its name with its district, the Latin American Montessori Bilingual PCS district metrics are nearly identical to the school’s own results, making the district essentially a one-school system. The school consistently earns a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks in the top 20% of DC elementary schools, placing 23rd out of 124 schools statewide in 2025-2026.

Academically, the school performs well above DC state averages. In 2025-2026, English Language Arts proficiency was 53.8% versus the state’s 39.6%, and math proficiency was 45.6% versus 28.2% statewide. ELA is a relative strength, with 4th grade reaching 63% proficiency, the highest subject-grade score. 5th grade science results are especially notable: 42.86% proficiency in 2024-2025, more than double the statewide rate of 20.41%. Math proficiency dipped slightly from 47.1% to 45.6% year-over-year, while ELA stayed flat. The school’s state rank shifted modestly from 20th to 23rd, but the percentile change was small (84th to 81st), indicating stable performance relative to peers.

The school invests heavily in individualized instruction, with a student-teacher ratio of 10.6 and per-student spending of $22,955. This small-class environment likely supports its strong outcomes. While the school’s district rank of 6 out of 46 public charter districts is impressive, it reflects the school’s performance against other DC charter districts rather than multiple schools in a traditional district. One limitation is that the data set does not include free/reduced lunch information, so it’s not possible to assess the school’s socioeconomic profile. Overall, Latin American Montessori Bilingual PCS offers consistently above-average academics, particularly in ELA and science, making it a strong elementary option within DC’s public charter landscape.
