Summary

Tyler Heights Elementary in Annapolis, MD, is a public school serving 416 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade within the Anne Arundel County Public Schools district, and it serves a community with exceptionally high economic need, where over 96% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Academically, Tyler Heights has faced persistent challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 15% of Maryland elementary schools over the past decade. For the 2025-2026 school year, only 10.9% of students were proficient in math and 24.2% in English Language Arts, rates that are dramatically lower than the district averages of 29.3% and 55.9%, respectively. This performance gap is stark when compared to nearby schools like West Annapolis Elementary, which achieved 61% proficiency in math and 84% in ELA. Despite high per-student spending of $26,430 and a low student-teacher ratio of 9.4 to 1, these resources have not yet translated into higher test scores, highlighting the depth of the challenges the school faces.

On a positive note, the school has made remarkable progress in reducing chronic absenteeism, dropping from 20.1% in 2021-2022 to just 9.9% in 2024-2025—now well below the district average of 19.9%. However, a concerning pattern emerges in 5th grade, where proficiency drops sharply, suggesting that foundational learning gaps become harder to overcome as the curriculum becomes more complex. Tyler Heights is located just 0.6 miles from Georgetown East Elementary, a school with a similarly high-poverty population, and both schools face deeply systemic challenges that go beyond attendance or class size.
