While Baltimore County Public Schools, the district that Vincent Farm Elementary is a part of, is ranked 17 out of 25 in Maryland and has a 2-star rating, the elementary school itself has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, dropping from 429 out of 865 Maryland elementary schools in 2024-2025 to 575 out of 855 in 2022-2023.
