Summary

Maryvale Elementary in Rockville, MD, is a public school serving 617 students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade as part of the highly-regarded Montgomery County Public Schools district, and it stands out for its exceptional and consistent academic performance, particularly in mathematics.

Maryvale’s most impressive achievement is its math proficiency rate, which at 55.9% is 51% higher than the district average and more than double the state average. This performance is especially notable given that nearly half of its students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, a key indicator of socioeconomic diversity. The school has earned a rare 5-star rating for its support of low socioeconomic status students, ranking in the 93rd percentile statewide—a remarkable feat that shows it is highly effective at closing achievement gaps. In comparison, nearby schools like Fallsmead Elementary and Beall Elementary have higher math scores but serve far fewer low-income students, making Maryvale a standout "high-performing, high-poverty" model. The school also boasts a low chronic absenteeism rate of 15.8%, significantly better than the district average of 22.6% and lower than peers like Twinbrook Elementary (25.0%) and Brookhaven Elementary (20.5%), indicating strong family engagement and school culture.

While Maryvale excels in math and performs well in English Language Arts (62.8% proficiency), its 5th-grade science scores are a relative weakness at 41.5%, only slightly above the district average and lower than schools like Lucy V. Barnsley Elementary (56.8%). Additionally, the school shows a "3rd grade peak" pattern, with exceptionally high proficiency in both math (67.4%) and ELA (71.7%) for 3rd graders, but a decline in 4th and 5th grades—a trend also seen at Bayard Rustin Elementary and College Gardens Elementary. Overall, Maryvale’s consistent state ranking in the 71st to 79th percentile over five years, combined with its efficient use of resources (spending $22,292 per student, less than lower-performing schools like Meadow Hall Elementary), makes it a reliable and effective choice for families seeking strong academic foundations.

Our daughter is in second grade at Maryvale. We find the teachers to be incredibly hard working and the administration open to our suggestions. We feel this is a terrific school both on the English side and the French Immersion side. Close Quote
