Where Do DC Public Charter School Students Live?

DC PCSB has produced maps of where public charter school students live and go to school in school year 2015-16 by calculating the shortest distance between a student’s home and school. 

Our findings show, on average, public charter school students commute 2.1 miles to school, which is the same average distance traveled to school in school year 2014-15. 

A detailed analysis of our findings can be found in our Choosing Quality report. 

Each school’s student location map will also be posted to the school’s profile page, found here.
