Summary

Milford Mill Academy is a public magnet high school in Baltimore, Maryland, serving 1,470 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district, which is ranked 17th out of 25 districts in the state.

Milford Mill Academy faces several key challenges. The school consistently underperforms compared to the Baltimore County and Maryland averages on MCAP assessments, with only 1.4% of its students proficient or better in MCAP Mathematics in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to 20.7% for Baltimore County and 26.5% for Maryland. Additionally, Milford Mill Academy has a relatively high dropout rate, ranging from 4% to 10% in recent years, and a very high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 28% to 57.6%, both significantly higher than state and district averages. The school also serves a population with significant economic disadvantages, with 45.8% to 57.9% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Interestingly, Milford Mill Academy's performance is generally lower than that of nearby magnet schools like New Town High and Woodlawn High, which are also part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district. However, it performs better than some other Baltimore City schools like Edmondson-Westside High and ConneXions: A Community Based Arts School. Addressing the school's high chronic absenteeism and dropout rates, as well as providing targeted support for its economically disadvantaged student population, could be crucial for improving Milford Mill Academy's overall academic performance.
