Summary:
The city of Randallstown, Maryland is home to 5 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district. While the district is ranked 17th out of 25 in Maryland and rated 2 stars by SchoolDigger, a few schools in Randallstown stand out with stronger academic performance.
Randallstown Elementary has the highest proficiency rates in both Math and English Language Arts across all grades, significantly outperforming the district and state averages. Church Lane Elementary also had strong Math proficiency, particularly in 4th grade. However, the data reveals wide gaps in test scores between the schools, with Deer Park Middle Magnet School and Randallstown High struggling to meet state and district averages, especially in Math.
Across the schools, chronic absenteeism rates are high at 28%, and Randallstown High has a concerning graduation rate of 85.8% and a dropout rate of 10.1%. Additionally, all schools serve a predominantly low-income population, with 55-62.5% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. These socioeconomic factors, along with disparities in funding and resource allocation, likely contribute to the academic performance gaps observed in the Randallstown school system.
