Summary:
Zip code 20762 is home to a single elementary school, Imagine Andrews Public Charter, which serves grades Kindergarten through 8th grade on Andrews Air Force Base and is part of the Prince George's County Public Schools district.
Imagine Andrews Public Charter stands out as a strong performer within its district, significantly outpacing district averages in nearly every academic category. For the 2025-2026 school year, the school achieved an overall English Language Arts proficiency of 52.3% and a math proficiency of 24.4%, compared to the district's 38.9% and 13.7%, respectively. The school also boasts a remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of 16.1%, which is nearly half the district's rate of 30.2%, and a low student-teacher ratio of 13.6. However, the school's state ranking has slipped from the 58th percentile in 2024-2025 to the 50th percentile in 2025-2026, indicating a slight decline relative to other schools statewide.
A few key findings reveal areas of both strength and concern. The school's 8th-grade science proficiency of 45% is a massive outlier, nearly tripling the district average of 16.2% and far exceeding the state average of 30.9%. Conversely, math performance shows a troubling pattern: 3rd graders excel with a 58.1% proficiency rate, but this drops sharply to 25.6% in 4th grade and plummets to 10.9% in 5th grade. The school spends a very high $22,247 per student, which correlates with strong ELA and science scores but does not translate to consistent math success. Overall, the school benefits from a stable, engaged community with a low free/reduced lunch rate of 28.82%, providing a solid foundation for continued improvement.
