Summary

Woodridge Elementary is a small school in Hyattsville, MD, serving 299 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the Prince George's County Public Schools district, where over 92% of students come from families with high economic need. This school has historically faced challenges, but recent data shows promising signs of improvement, especially in English Language Arts, making it a school worth watching for local families.

One of the most encouraging developments is Woodridge's progress in mathematics. In the 2024-2025 school year, its math proficiency rate jumped to 17.3%, which actually exceeded the district average of 13.1% for the first time in recent years. This is a notable turnaround from the previous year and stands in contrast to many nearby schools that saw declines. Additionally, Woodridge's 4th-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate of 38.1% was the highest among all its nearby comparison schools, including Glenarden Woods Elementary, a top-performing school just 1.5 miles away. Woodridge also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate (26.2%) than the district average (30.2%) and its neighboring schools, which is a critical advantage for student learning.

Despite these bright spots, Woodridge still faces significant hurdles. Its 5th-grade science proficiency is very low at 10.2%, roughly half the district average, and math proficiency dipped again in the most recent year. The school spends more per student ($22,143) than most nearby schools, including the high-performing Glenarden Woods ($16,503), which raises questions about how resources are being used to support academic growth. While Woodridge shows a clear strength in literacy compared to math, the key challenge remains translating its higher spending and better attendance into consistent, grade-level progress across all subjects, especially science and math.
