Summary

Centreville Middle School in Centreville, MD, serves 501 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the high-performing Queen Anne's County Public Schools district, which ranks 6th out of 25 districts in Maryland. The school has a strong track record, earning a 4-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year and ranking 84th out of 339 schools statewide, though it has not yet returned to its pre-pandemic peak of being a consistent 5-star school.

Centreville stands out for its exceptional English Language Arts (ELA) performance, with 64.3% of students proficient—significantly higher than the district (57.9%) and state (51.7%) averages. This is the highest ELA proficiency rate among comparable schools, including nearby Matapeake Middle School (74%). The school also excels in advanced math, with 49.2% of students taking Algebra I scoring proficient—more than double the district and state averages. However, overall math proficiency (25.5%) lags behind the district (31.7%), suggesting a need to strengthen the general math curriculum. Additionally, Centreville has a lower chronic absenteeism rate (18.9%) compared to Stevensville Middle School (28.6%) and Lockerman Middle School (31.7%), indicating strong student engagement.

One of the school's most notable strengths is its effectiveness with students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, who ranked in the 66th percentile statewide—a stark contrast to its performance with other subgroups. However, the school faces a critical challenge with Special Education students, who ranked in the 6th percentile in 2020-2021, highlighting an area for targeted improvement. While Matapeake Middle School outperforms Centreville in overall math (33.9% vs. 25.5%) and Algebra I (85.7% vs. 49.2%), Centreville's strong ELA results and lower absenteeism make it a solid choice for families prioritizing literacy and attendance.
