Summary:

Two Rivers PCS is a Washington, DC public charter school network serving about 1,022 students in grades PK-8 across three campuses — two elementary schools and one middle school — ranked 23rd among 46 DC districts at the 50th percentile with 3 stars. The network includes Two Rivers PCS - Young Elementary School (407 students, PK-5), Two Rivers PCS - 4th Street (391 students, PK-5), and Two Rivers PCS - Young Middle School (224 students, grades 6-8). All three schools share the same per-pupil spending of $26,168 and similar student-teacher ratios, making academic differences particularly notable.

Among the three campuses, Two Rivers PCS - 4th Street is the clear academic leader, ranking 55th of 124 DC schools (56th percentile) with 3 stars. It is the only school in the network above both district and state averages in mathematics (29.1% proficient vs. 21.9% district and 28.2% state) and posts the network's best ELA results at 33.3%, including a standout 47.7% proficiency rate in 5th grade ELA. Two Rivers PCS - Young Elementary School, by contrast, ranks 68th (45th percentile, 2 stars) with the lowest elementary scores in both ELA (26.3%) and math (25.5%), though it shines in 3rd grade math at 42.8%. Two Rivers PCS - Young Middle School sends mixed signals: ELA is respectable at 32.3% with excellent 8th grade results at 46.2%, but math is the network's biggest weakness at 15.4% overall.

Encouragingly, Young Middle is improving rapidly, with ELA up 6.9 points and math up 5.0 points year over year, yet all three schools have declined in state ranking percentiles since 2023-24. Science is a clear concern, especially at 4th Street, where only 7.89% of 5th graders are proficient versus the state's 20.41%. Despite having the network's lowest student-teacher ratio (8.6:1), Young Middle's math sits 12.8 points below the state average, signaling a need for targeted intervention. The network's strengths — 4th Street's overall math performance and Young Middle's strong 8th grade ELA — provide a foundation to build on as Two Rivers PCS works to reverse its downward ranking trend.
