Summary
Hebbville Elementary is a public elementary school in Baltimore, Maryland, serving 465 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district, which is ranked 17 out of 25 in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Hebbville Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 28.0% to 34.7% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. The school's academic performance, as measured by MCAP test scores, is generally lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts were 21% and 33.2%, respectively, compared to the district's 20.7% and 45%, and the state's 26.5% and 50.8%. Additionally, Hebbville Elementary has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 45.13% to 66.02% over the past few years, suggesting a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.
While Hebbville Elementary receives relatively high per-student funding, ranging from $15,317 to $19,877 over the past few years, this has not translated into significantly better academic outcomes compared to the surrounding schools, such as Bedford Elementary, Winfield Elementary, and Powhatan Elementary, which generally outperform Hebbville Elementary on academic measures, with higher test scores and lower chronic absenteeism rates. Addressing the root causes of these issues, such as improving attendance, strengthening instructional practices, and providing targeted support for underperforming student subgroups, may be crucial for Hebbville Elementary to improve its performance and better serve its students.
