Summary

Winfield Elementary is a public elementary school in Baltimore, Maryland, serving 439 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district, which is ranked 17 out of 25 in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winfield Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to other Maryland elementary schools, typically ranking in the bottom third of the state. The school's academic proficiency rates in both mathematics and English language arts are well below the Baltimore County and state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 18.1% of Winfield students were proficient in mathematics, compared to 20.7% for the county and 26.5% for the state. Winfield's chronic absenteeism rate is also significantly higher than the typical range, ranging from 24% to 34.7% over the past few years.

Interestingly, Winfield Elementary's performance is generally lower than nearby schools in the Baltimore County Public Schools district, such as Dogwood Elementary, Watershed Public Charter, and Winand Elementary, which tend to have higher academic proficiency and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Despite increased per-student spending at Winfield Elementary in recent years, these improvements have not translated into significant gains in student outcomes.
