Summary:
The Calvert County Public Schools district in Maryland is home to four high schools that serve students in grades 9-12. These schools vary in their academic performance, with some standouts and others facing challenges, particularly in mathematics proficiency.
Northern High and Huntingtown High School are the top-performing high schools in the district. Northern High ranks 46th out of 146 Maryland high schools and excels in English Language Arts, with over 86% of students proficient. Huntingtown High School also performs well, with high graduation rates and strong English Language Arts scores. In contrast, Calvert High and Patuxent High lag behind in academic performance, particularly in mathematics proficiency.
The data suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic factors, as indicated by free and reduced-price lunch rates, and academic performance. Schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tend to have lower proficiency rates in state assessments. The district as a whole faces challenges in improving mathematics proficiency across all schools, which is an area that warrants further attention and targeted interventions.
