Summary

Queen Anne's County High School in Centreville, MD, serves 1,145 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the high-performing Queen Anne's County Public Schools district, which ranks 6th out of 25 in Maryland. The school has a solid 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and a low student-teacher ratio of 13.7, but its most defining feature is a dramatic split in academic performance: while 69.3% of students are proficient in English Language Arts (ELA)—well above the state average of 51.7%—only 6.5% are proficient in math, creating a 62.8 percentage point gap that signals a critical challenge in math instruction or student readiness.

This math struggle is not unique to Queen Anne's County High. At nearby Kent Island High School, also in the same district, math proficiency is just 8.2%, suggesting a systemic issue within the district's math curriculum. However, Queen Anne's County High faces an additional hurdle: a chronic absenteeism rate of 31.7%, which is significantly higher than Kent Island's 24.2% and likely contributes to its lower overall performance. In contrast, North Caroline High School, located 14.5 miles away in Caroline County Public Schools, achieves nearly double the math proficiency (12.9%) despite serving a more economically disadvantaged population, highlighting that Queen Anne's County's math issues are not inevitable.

Despite these challenges, Queen Anne's County High boasts a strong graduation rate of 94.5%, and its ELA performance is a genuine strength worth celebrating. The school spends $14,846 per student, which is less than some neighboring schools like St. Michaels Middle/High School ($18,136) and Kent County High ($24,959), both of which also struggle with low math scores. This suggests that the math proficiency crisis is less about funding levels and more about how resources are allocated and which instructional strategies are used. For parents, this school offers a strong foundation in literacy and humanities, but requires close attention to math support and attendance to ensure student success.
