Summary

Severna Park High is a public high school in Severna Park, Maryland, serving 1,817 students in grades 9-12. It is part of the Anne Arundel County Public Schools district, which is ranked 13th out of 25 districts in Maryland and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Severna Park High consistently ranks among the top high schools in Maryland, with a statewide ranking between 5th and 12th place over the past several years. It has maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, indicating exceptional academic achievement. The school's students significantly outperform the state and county averages in standardized tests, with 92% of 10th-grade students proficient or better in MCAP English Language Arts, compared to 59.5% statewide and 68.2% in the Anne Arundel County district. Severna Park High also has lower chronic absenteeism rates and a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a strong student engagement and a more affluent student population compared to the surrounding schools.

While Severna Park High is the top-performing school in the immediate vicinity, several other nearby schools, such as Broadneck High and Arundel High, also demonstrate strong academic performance and are ranked highly at the state level. This suggests a concentration of high-quality public education options in the Severna Park area. However, the significant disparities in test scores and other metrics between Severna Park High and some of the nearby schools, particularly those with higher percentages of students from low-income backgrounds, highlight the need to address potential equity concerns within the broader educational system.
