Summary

Owings Mills High is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Owings Mills, Maryland, with a student population of 1,169. The school is part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district, which is ranked 17th out of 25 districts in Maryland and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Owings Mills High has consistently underperformed its nearby counterparts, such as Woodlawn High, Pikesville High, and Milford Mill Academy, across various metrics.

The school's academic performance is a particular concern, with proficiency rates in core subjects like Mathematics and English Language Arts falling well below the Baltimore County and Maryland averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Owings Mills High had only 4.4% proficiency in Mathematics, compared to 20.7% for Baltimore County and 26.5% for Maryland. Additionally, the school's graduation rates, ranging from 72.8% to 85.8% over the past few years, are lower than the typical 85.8% rate seen at nearby schools. Owings Mills High also struggles with higher dropout rates and chronic absenteeism, further contributing to its underperformance.

The data suggests that socioeconomic factors may play a role in the school's challenges, as Owings Mills High has higher rates of free/reduced lunch recipients compared to nearby schools. This could indicate that the school serves a more economically disadvantaged student population, which may contribute to the lower academic performance and higher dropout/absenteeism rates. Overall, the analysis highlights several areas where Owings Mills High could focus its efforts to improve, such as increasing proficiency in core academic subjects, improving graduation rates, reducing dropout rates, and addressing chronic absenteeism.
