Bronx Global Learning Institute for Girls Charter School (The Shirley Rodriguez-Remeneski School) serves kindergarten through eighth grade in the South Bronx as a charter school located in a shared building in Concourse Village. The school enrolls a small student population across its grade band, drawing mostly from the immediate neighborhood: nearly all students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, and the student body is predominantly Hispanic, with a substantial Black population and a small number of Asian, white, and Native American students. The school is an all-girls institution that received a full five-year charter renewal from the New York State Board of Regents in June 2024, establishing continued operation through 2029.

Academically, the school shows an uneven but generally strengthening profile as students move up through the grades. In third grade, proficiency in math and ELA falls well short of state standards, with roughly one in five students meeting grade-level expectations in each subject. This pattern shifts notably by fourth grade, where about half of students reach proficiency in both subjects, and the trajectory continues upward through the middle grades. By seventh and eighth grade, the school reaches considerably stronger performance: ELA proficiency approaches or exceeds three quarters of students in grades seven and eight, while math proficiency sits in the upper range of the school's results. Science proficiency, tested in grades five and eight, falls in the lower-to-mid range at grade five but strengthens to around two thirds by eighth grade. Across the board, participation in state assessments is generally solid, though a parent may want to look into why participation dips to around two thirds in some upper elementary grades.

Overall proficiency across tested subjects and grades positions this school in the top quartile among Bronx County districts, a meaningful distinction that reflects strength in the upper grades offsetting softer primary results. The graduation rate and measures of chronic absenteeism are not available in the data.

The school's building shares space with South Bronx Literacy Academy as of the 2024-2025 school year, following a reorganization that moved the former co-tenant Concourse Village Elementary out to a new building. The school's authorized enrollment was reduced in a charter revision, making it a contained, smaller community.

The Bronx neighborhood around Concourse Village is dense and mixed-use, with commercial corridors, residential streets, and transit access anchoring daily life. The borough is experiencing substantial growth in affordable housing, with ongoing projects near the school's location adding new residential inventory. This is an economically constrained area; median household income in the city as a whole exceeds the home values in the school's zip code, and a large majority of the neighborhood relies on public transit. The school sits within a walked urban landscape, with shops, services, and subway stations within reach on foot.

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
