Summary:

The Washington Global PCS area has one listed school, Washington Global PCS, a middle school serving grades 6–8 with 227 students. Because it is the only school in the group, there is no meaningful comparison among nearby schools. In 2025–2026, its all-grades ELA proficiency was slightly above the state rate, but its math proficiency was below it: 41% versus 40% in ELA and 25% versus 28% in math. The clearest overall takeaway is that results are stronger in ELA than in math, but that schoolwide picture hides substantial differences by grade.

Washington Global PCS is both the highest- and lowest-performing school in this one-school group, so no area-wide top or bottom ranking is meaningful. Within the school, 7th grade stands out: ELA proficiency was 51%, 5 points above the state, and math was 32%, 4 points above. The clearest relative weak spots were 6th-grade ELA, at 28% versus 41% statewide, a 13-point gap, and 8th-grade math, at 14% versus 25%, an 11-point gap. Other grades show a mixed picture: 8th-grade ELA was 4 points above the state, while 6th-grade math was 2 points below.

Results improved over the two years available, especially in ELA. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA proficiency rose from 33% to 41%, while the state rate rose from 38% to 40%; the school moved from 5 points below the state to 1 point above. Math increased from 22% to 25%, and the school’s gap narrowed from 4 points below the state to 3 points below. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking also rebounded, from the 59th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 68th percentile in 2025–2026, after a 66th-percentile result in 2023–2024. For context, the school’s 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 12.2:1, and 59.5% of students were directly certified for free meals in 2024–2025; these figures describe the school but do not explain its test results.
