Summary:

The Queen Anne's County Public Schools district in Maryland serves approximately 8,028 students across 14 schools, including 8 elementary, 4 middle, and 2 high schools, and is ranked 6th out of 25 districts in the state with a 4-star rating. The district shows a clear performance divide, with schools in the Stevensville/Kent Island area, such as Kent Island High School, Matapeake Elementary School, and Matapeake Middle School, consistently outperforming others. Matapeake Middle School is the district's top overall school, ranking in the 83rd percentile with exceptional English Language Arts (74% proficient) and Algebra I (85.7% proficient) scores, while Matapeake Elementary leads elementary schools with the highest math proficiency (57%) and the lowest chronic absenteeism rate (12.6%). In contrast, Sudlersville Elementary School faces significant challenges, ranking in the 27th percentile with the highest free/reduced lunch rate (69.52%) and the lowest proficiency in both math (25.6%) and ELA (29.5%).

Key metrics reveal a district-wide "Algebra I Paradox," where middle schools like Centreville Middle School and Stevensville Middle School achieve high Algebra I proficiency rates (48.5% to 85.7%), while high schools like Queen Anne's County High School struggle below 10%. Chronic absenteeism is a widespread issue, averaging 22.4% district-wide, with Queen Anne's County High School (31.7%) and Stevensville Middle School (28.6%) having the highest rates. Socioeconomic status strongly correlates with performance, as schools with lower poverty rates, such as Bayside Elementary School (29.89% free/reduced lunch), tend to score higher, while higher-need schools like Sudlersville Middle School (59.73%) lag behind.

Spending per student varies widely, from $14,846 at Queen Anne's County High School to $21,794 at Sudlersville Elementary School, but higher spending does not guarantee better outcomes, as Sudlersville Elementary has the highest spending yet the lowest test scores. The district allocates more teachers to higher-need schools, with student-teacher ratios ranging from 11.6:1 at Sudlersville Elementary to 15.7:1 at Grasonville Elementary School. Overall, the Kent Island cluster—including Kent Island High School, Matapeake Elementary, and Matapeake Middle School—emerges as a performance hub, benefiting from lower poverty and absenteeism, while schools like Church Hill Elementary School and Kennard Elementary School show moderate performance with room for improvement.
