Summary

Red House Run Elementary is a mid-sized elementary school in Baltimore, MD, serving 694 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the Baltimore County Public Schools district, where over 66% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. This school has maintained a stable but modest performance over the past decade, consistently ranking in the lower-middle tier of Maryland elementary schools with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of the most notable findings is that Red House Run spends a significant amount per student—$20,094 in the 2023-2024 school year—yet it is being outpaced by nearby schools with similar or lower funding. For example, Rossville Elementary (1.95 miles away) spends $16,699 per student and ranks in the 67th percentile, while Fullerton Elementary (1.87 miles away) spends $19,649 and ranks in the 49th percentile. This suggests that the school's challenges are not due to a lack of funding, but rather how resources are allocated or the impact of other factors. Additionally, chronic absenteeism at Red House Run (24.4%) is significantly higher than at Rossville (15.7%) and Fullerton (17.4%), which may be affecting academic progress.

Academically, math is a critical weakness at Red House Run, with only 20.3% of students proficient in math in the 2025-2026 school year, compared to 38.8% at Rossville Elementary. However, there is a bright spot: the school ranks in the 51st percentile for serving low-socioeconomic status students, earning a 3-star rating—its highest subgroup score. This indicates that Red House Run is relatively effective at supporting its economically disadvantaged students, which is a positive foundation to build upon. While the school is not failing, it is underperforming its potential, especially when compared to the clear success stories of Rossville and Fullerton just a short distance away.
