Community College Preparatory Academy PCS

Community College Preparatory Academy PCS is a public charter school in Washington, D.C. serving 1,648 students. The school experienced exceptional enrollment growth of 192.2% from the prior year, indicating substantial expansion or a significant influx of new students during this period.

The student body is predominantly Black (94.1%), with Hispanic students comprising 1.9% of enrollment. Approximately 66.0% of students qualify as economically disadvantaged, which exceeds the District of Columbia's overall rate of economically disadvantaged students. The school reports zero English learners and zero students receiving special education services, representing a notably different demographic profile compared to most D.C. public schools and the national average of approximately 14% students with disabilities.

A critical data anomaly exists: the school reports zero teachers despite enrolling 1,648 students. This inconsistency suggests either incomplete data submission or significant reporting errors requiring clarification from the school or district office. Standard student-teacher ratios would typically require 100-150 teachers for this enrollment size.

The school's charter status and rapid growth pattern indicate recent establishment or recent authorization expansion. The absence of reported special education services and English learner support, combined with above-average economic disadvantage rates, warrants examination of whether all student populations are being adequately served and whether the school has capacity to address diverse learning needs.
