Summary

International High School @ Largo in Upper Marlboro, MD, is a small high school serving 354 students in grades 9-12 within the Prince George's County Public Schools district, where nearly 95% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school stands out for its exceptional graduation rate of 90.4% for the 2024-2025 school year, which is the highest among nearby schools like Bladensburg High (68.3%) and Duval High (76.3%), and far exceeds the district average of 78.9%. However, this success contrasts sharply with low academic proficiency rates—just 3.7% in Math and 15% in English Language Arts—suggesting the school prioritizes keeping students on track to graduate over standardized test performance.

The school invests heavily in student support, spending $24,041 per student, which is significantly more than nearby schools like Charles Herbert Flowers High ($16,254) and even the high-performing Academy of Health Sciences at PGCC ($21,076). With a low student-teacher ratio of 11.2:1, class sizes are much smaller than at Largo High (15.2:1) or Suitland High (18.4:1), which likely helps the school retain students and achieve a low dropout rate of 8.5%—nearly half the district average of 15.9%. Despite these strengths, chronic absenteeism is a major challenge at 44.9%, the highest among its immediate neighbors, though the school still manages to graduate most of its students.

Interestingly, International High School @ Largo shares an address with Largo High, which has a slightly higher graduation rate (90.9%) and lower dropout rate (6.1%), but International High School spends more per student and has smaller classes, indicating it may serve a specific population needing extra support. Just half a mile away, the Academy of Health Sciences at PGCC ranks in the 99th percentile statewide with near-perfect test scores, highlighting the different missions of these schools. International High School @ Largo focuses on helping students graduate despite academic challenges, making it a unique option for families seeking a supportive environment that prioritizes completion over test scores.
