Elementary Schools in Wicomico County Public Schools

Summary:

The Wicomico County Public Schools district in Maryland is home to 16 elementary schools serving grades pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and low-performing schools, with significant disparities in academic outcomes across the district.

Among the standout schools are North Salisbury Elementary, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, and Westside Intermediate, which also performs well, ranking in the top 40% of Maryland elementary schools. Additionally, Willards Elementary stands out with impressive MCAP test scores, where over 50% of students are proficient or better in both mathematics and English language arts.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools, such as Prince Street School, Pinehurst Elementary, and Glen Avenue School. This suggests a need for the district to address equity and resource allocation to ensure all students have access to a high-quality education.
