Summary

Glenmount Elementary/Middle is a public school in the Baltimore City Public Schools district serving 628 students from Pre-K through 8th grade, located in a high-poverty area where over 75% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Glenmount presents a striking contrast in academic performance. While its math proficiency is critically low at just 7.1%, its English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency reaches 36.8%—higher than the district average and competitive with nearby schools. This creates an unusual 29.7 percentage point gap between reading and math scores. The school's ELA strength is particularly notable in upper grades, with 48.8% of 7th graders and 40% of 6th graders proficient, rivaling top-performing neighbors like City Neighbors Hamilton (53.2% ELA proficiency) and City Neighbors Charter School. However, math scores remain uniformly low across all grades, peaking at just 14.5% in 3rd grade and dropping to 1.7% in 6th. This suggests the school may have an effective literacy program but needs significant improvement in math instruction.

A major bright spot is Glenmount's low chronic absenteeism rate of 16.3%, far better than nearby Hazelwood Elementary/Middle (40.1%) and Gardenville Elementary (36.4%), and even lower than Elmwood Elementary in Baltimore County (19.4%). The school spends over $21,000 per student—higher than top-performing nearby schools like Fullerton Elementary ($19,649)—yet this investment hasn't translated into strong math outcomes. The school's state ranking has been volatile, jumping to the 36th percentile in 2024-2025 before dropping to the 18th percentile in 2025-2026. Glenmount's success in ELA provides a foundation to build upon, but a focused effort is needed to address its math challenges.
