Summary

Annapolis Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Annapolis, Maryland, with 183 students enrolled. The school faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, low test scores, and a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Annapolis Elementary's performance lags significantly behind many of the nearby schools, such as Arnold Elementary, West Annapolis Elementary, and Hillsmere Elementary. These schools have much higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism, and lower free/reduced lunch rates. Annapolis Elementary's performance has also declined over the past several years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 376 out of 859 schools in 2014-2015 to 692 out of 865 schools in 2024-2025.

Despite the relatively high spending per student at Annapolis Elementary, the school's academic outcomes are poor, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be enough to improve performance. Addressing the school's challenges will likely require a comprehensive approach that goes beyond just increasing funding, such as targeted interventions, improved attendance policies, and a focus on equity and student support. The Anne Arundel County Public Schools district, which Annapolis Elementary is a part of, is ranked 13 out of 25 in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
