Grange Elementary's academic performance is generally lower than the nearby schools within the Baltimore County Public Schools district, such as Berkshire Elementary, Logan Elementary, and Sandy Plains Elementary. These nearby schools also have lower chronic absenteeism rates and a smaller percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds compared to Grange Elementary. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates, providing targeted support for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, and implementing strategies to improve academic achievement across all grade levels and subject areas could be potential areas of focus for the school and the district.

One thing that your statistics and comparisons don't take into account is how well-integrated into the neighborhood a school is. All of our daughter's teachers have lived within a mile of the school. We'll run into one another in the supermarket, walking the dog in the park, at the parade during the summer, cleaning up after natural disasters. It is too bad that good citizenship and sense of community responsibility cannot be measured by MSA tests, because those would shoot Grange up by several stars. Close Quote
