Summary

Pot Spring Elementary in Timonium, MD, is a mid-sized school serving 434 students in grades PK through 5, and it stands out as a solid, above-average option within the Baltimore County Public Schools district, particularly for its exceptional math performance.

Pot Spring’s most notable strength is its mathematics program, with 46.8% of students proficient in math—more than double the district average of 21.9% and significantly higher than the state average of 27.1%. This "math magnet" effect is especially evident in 3rd grade, where 64.2% of students are proficient compared to 42.6% statewide. While its English Language Arts scores are also above district and state averages, the gap is far more pronounced in math, suggesting a focused strength in the school’s math curriculum. The school has also made a dramatic improvement in chronic absenteeism, dropping from 32.4% in 2022-2023 to 15.2% in 2024-2025, which is now much better than the district average of 25.6%.

Geographically, Pot Spring sits in a challenging position, surrounded by some of the highest-performing elementary schools in the state, such as Pinewood Elementary (98th percentile) and Timonium Elementary (96th percentile). However, it significantly outperforms its closest neighbor, Padonia International Elementary, which has a higher poverty rate and much lower test scores. With a student-teacher ratio of 16.6:1 and spending of $18,111 per student, Pot Spring achieves strong results with efficient resource allocation, making it a compelling choice for families seeking a high-quality education that exceeds district and state norms, especially in math.
