Summary

Oxon Hill High in Oxon Hill, MD, is a large public high school serving 1,562 students in grades 9-12 within the Prince George's County Public Schools district, where about 58% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch—a notably lower rate than many nearby schools.

Oxon Hill High presents a striking academic paradox. In English Language Arts (ELA), the school is a standout, with 56.3% of students proficient—well above both the district (38.9%) and state (51.7%) averages. This strength is consistent over recent years and far exceeds the performance of nearby schools like Potomac High (29.4% ELA proficiency) and Friendly High. However, math proficiency is critically low at just 7%, lagging behind the district (13.7%) and state (27.1%). This extreme gap suggests the school has found effective literacy strategies that have not yet been replicated in math instruction. The school also boasts a relatively strong graduation rate of 84.3% and a lower chronic absenteeism rate (35.4%) compared to peers like Potomac High (61.3%) and Suitland High (56.2%).

Compared to its neighbors, Oxon Hill stands out for its better student attendance and persistence, despite spending less per student ($18,429) than many nearby schools. For instance, Central High spends over $22,500 per student but has a lower graduation rate and higher absenteeism. While the school’s overall ranking has been volatile—peaking at the 73rd percentile in 2021-2022 before dropping and rebounding to the 45th percentile—its clear strength in ELA and lower economic disadvantage provide a solid foundation. The key challenge for Oxon Hill High is to translate its literacy success into math, which will be critical for its future trajectory.
