Summary

North Glen Elementary is a public elementary school in Glen Burnie, Maryland, serving 309 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Anne Arundel County Public Schools district, which is ranked 13 out of 25 in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

North Glen Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Maryland elementary schools over the past several years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past 5 school years, indicating it is performing significantly below average compared to other elementary schools in the state. The school has very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.1% to 33.3% over the past few school years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Academically, North Glen students perform well below their peers in the district and state on standardized tests, with only 16.9% proficient or better in Math and 24.3% proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 28.8% and 56.3% in the district, respectively.

Compared to nearby schools like Monarch Academy, Linthicum Elementary, and George T. Cromwell Elementary, North Glen Elementary performs significantly worse, with higher chronic absenteeism and lower academic proficiency. The only nearby school that performs similarly is Richard Henry Lee Elementary. These challenges may be related to the high percentage of students from low-income families at North Glen, which could require targeted interventions and support systems to address the specific needs of the student population.
