LATIN AMERICAN MONTESSORI BILINGUAL PCS

Latin American Montessori Bilingual PCS is a public charter elementary school that is part of the Latin American Montessori Bilingual PCS school district, located in Washington, DC with about 462 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 5th Grade. With about 42 teachers, Latin American Montessori Bilingual PCS has a student/teacher ratio of about 11:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
