Summary

Park Elementary is a public elementary school in Baltimore, Maryland, serving 551 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Anne Arundel County Public Schools district, which is ranked 13 out of 25 in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $20,286, Park Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Maryland elementary schools, with low proficiency rates on state assessments. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 19.7% of Park Elementary students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 28.8% in the district and 26.5% statewide. The school's performance is particularly low in Mathematics, with proficiency rates ranging from 12.5% to 30.1% across grade levels, compared to 31-43% in the district and 30.7-42% statewide. In English Language Arts, Park Elementary's proficiency rates are also below the district and state, ranging from 28% to 39% across grade levels, compared to 48.9-57% in the district and 45-50% statewide.

Nearby schools within the same district, such as Monarch Academy, North Glen Elementary, and Overlook Elementary, generally perform better than Park Elementary on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and rankings. However, these schools also have lower percentages of students from disadvantaged backgrounds, with free/reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 36.93% to 78.32%, compared to 87.48% at Park Elementary. The high chronic absenteeism rates at Park Elementary, ranging from 22.1% to 29.1% over the past few school years, may also be a significant factor contributing to the school's low academic performance.
