Summary

Eastport Elementary is a small public school in Annapolis, MD, serving 283 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the Anne Arundel County Public Schools district, and it stands out for its high level of economic disadvantage, with nearly 89% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This school has shown signs of improvement, moving from a 1-star to a 2-star rating in recent years, and has made significant strides in reducing chronic absenteeism from 37% to just 13.1%, which is now below the district average. However, Eastport faces a critical challenge in 5th grade, where math proficiency drops to just 2.5% and English Language Arts to 15%, a sharp decline from stronger performance in 3rd and 4th grades that is not seen at nearby schools like Rolling Knolls Elementary.

Compared to other schools in the area, Eastport's performance is closely tied to its high poverty rate, similar to Walter S. Mills - Parole Elementary and Tyler Heights Elementary, which also have over 90% of students on free or reduced lunch and rank in the bottom 20% of Maryland schools. In contrast, higher-performing schools like West Annapolis Elementary and Windsor Farm Elementary have much lower poverty rates (around 17-29%) and rank in the top 15% of the state. Despite spending $27,656 per student—more than many nearby schools—Eastport's academic outcomes have not yet matched this investment, highlighting the deep challenges of overcoming poverty's impact on learning.

On a positive note, Eastport's overall math proficiency has more than doubled from 12% to 26.4% over the past few years, and English Language Arts has improved from 26% to 35.7%, suggesting a positive trajectory. The school's dramatic improvement in attendance is a key driver of this progress, and it now outperforms other high-poverty schools like Annapolis Elementary and Monarch Academy Annapolis Elementary School in this area. For parents, Eastport offers a dedicated environment with improving trends, but the 5th-grade performance crisis requires urgent attention to ensure students are prepared for middle school.
