Summary

Kingsview Middle in Germantown, MD, serves 908 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the highly-rated Montgomery County Public Schools district, consistently earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past five years and ranking in the top quarter of Maryland middle schools.

Kingsview stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in advanced coursework. The school's math proficiency (38.8%) and English Language Arts proficiency (62.8%) both exceed district and state averages, and it dramatically outperforms nearby schools like Rocky Hill Middle and Ridgeview Middle, where math proficiency is around 19%. Most impressive is Kingsview's success in advanced math: 91.3% of students taking Geometry are proficient, the highest rate among all nearby schools and far above the district average of 67.6%. The school also excels at supporting students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with this subgroup ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide. Additionally, Kingsview has a low chronic absenteeism rate of 13.7%, significantly better than the district average of 22.6% and much lower than schools like Gaithersburg Middle (31.0%) and Martin Luther King Junior Middle (25.3%).

While Kingsview is a solid performer, it is not the top school in the area—Hallie Wells Middle consistently outperforms it in overall rank, math and ELA proficiency, and chronic absenteeism. A notable pattern at Kingsview is a sharp decline in math proficiency as students progress through grades, with 6th graders at 44.3% proficient but 8th graders at just 2.9%—a trend driven by top students taking advanced courses like Algebra I and Geometry, which boosts the school's overall math scores. The school also has a significant area for improvement: support for English Language Learners, who ranked in the 24th percentile statewide, the lowest-performing subgroup at the school.
