Summary

Stadium School is a public middle school in Baltimore, Maryland, serving 265 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Baltimore City Public Schools district, which is ranked 24th out of 25 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Stadium School has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing middle schools in Maryland, with a ranking between 312th and 332nd out of 337 schools over the past several years.

One of the major challenges facing Stadium School is its extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 48.7% to 67.4% in recent years. This is significantly higher than the district and state averages, indicating a significant issue with student attendance. Additionally, the school's academic performance is well below the district and state averages across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 0.4% of students were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 12.6% in the district and 26.5% statewide. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 77.16% to 87.17%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When comparing Stadium School to nearby schools in the same district, the data reveals that other schools are also struggling with low academic performance and high chronic absenteeism rates. For example, The Historic Cherry Hill Elementary/Middle and Vanguard Collegiate Middle have similar challenges. However, there is a bright spot in the form of The Crossroads School, a public charter middle school located within 3 miles of Stadium School, which has significantly higher proficiency rates in both mathematics and English Language Arts compared to the district and state averages. This suggests that alternative educational models may be more effective in this community.
