Summary

Robert Frost Elementary is a public elementary school in New Carrollton, Maryland, serving 289 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Prince George's County Public Schools district, which is ranked 22 out of 25 in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Robert Frost Elementary stands out from nearby schools like Beacon Heights Elementary and Carrollton Elementary with its consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 31.5% to 34.8% in recent years. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally lower than the state and district averages, with only 21.3% of students proficient or better in MCAP Mathematics and 32% proficient or better in MCAP English Language Arts.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $22,455 to $24,939 in recent years, its academic outcomes still lag behind the state and district. This suggests that the school may need to re-evaluate how resources are allocated and utilized to better support student learning. Furthermore, the data shows that some nearby schools, such as Robert Goddard Montessori and Phyllis E. Williams Elementary, are magnet schools that outperform Robert Frost Elementary on various metrics, indicating that families in the area may have access to higher-performing educational options through magnet programs.
