Summary:
The Queen Anne's County Public Schools district in Maryland is home to 8 elementary schools serving grades pre-kindergarten through 5th grade, with student populations ranging from 289 to 569. The district as a whole is ranked 7th out of 25 in Maryland and is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
Among the standout schools in the district are Matapeake Elementary School, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Maryland, and Bayside Elementary School, another high-performing school with strong test scores, particularly in English language arts. Grasonville Elementary School also performs well, with a 4-star rating and test scores that surpass the district and state averages.
However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest performing schools in the district. Schools with higher rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, such as Sudlersville Elementary School and Church Hill Elementary School, tend to have lower test scores, suggesting a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement. Additionally, the district-wide chronic absenteeism rate of 22.9% is a concern that the district may need to address.
