Summary

Charles Carroll Middle in New Carrollton, MD, is a public school serving 884 students in grades 6-8 within the Prince George's County Public Schools district, where nearly all students come from families with high economic need.

This school presents a fascinating contrast in its academic programs. While overall math proficiency is low at 8.8%, the school has an exceptional advanced math program: 81.8% of students taking Algebra I are proficient, dramatically outperforming the district average of 11.1% and nearby schools like Kenmoor Middle (59.7%) and Greenbelt Middle (73.5%). This suggests a highly effective program for advanced students, though it may come at the cost of broader math instruction. The school also has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.6, lower than both the district average and higher-performing peers like Kenmoor (16.0) and Greenbelt (14.9). Compared to its closest neighbor, Ellen Ochoa Middle, Charles Carroll achieves slightly better English Language Arts proficiency (30.1% vs. 25.2%) despite similar overall math scores.

Chronic absenteeism has improved significantly from a pandemic peak of 37.4% to 21.3%, which is better than the district average of 30.2% and much lower than nearby G. James Gholson Middle (42.2%). However, the school struggles most in science and social studies, where only 7.4% and 9.3% of 8th graders are proficient respectively—the lowest among all nearby schools. The school spends $18,310 per student, less than higher-performing neighbors like Kenmoor ($21,329) and Greenbelt ($19,284), indicating it achieves its advanced math results with comparatively fewer resources.
