Summary

Snow Hill High is a public high school in Snow Hill, Maryland, serving grades 9-12 and part of the Worcester County Public Schools district, which is ranked 1 out of 25 districts in the state. With 341 students and a student-teacher ratio of 10.6, the school has consistently performed above the state and district averages in English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency, but struggles with mathematics proficiency, which is significantly lower than the state and district averages.

While Snow Hill High maintains a high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 91.7% to 94.6% in recent years, the school has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 21.3% to 36.2%, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 46.65% to 100%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Interestingly, the school's academic performance, particularly in mathematics, is generally lower than that of the nearby Stephen Decatur High and Pocomoke High, which are also part of the Worcester County Public Schools district.

The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Snow Hill High, coupled with the relatively high per-student spending, suggests that the school is serving a population with significant economic challenges, which may be contributing to the school's academic performance, particularly in mathematics. Addressing these issues and leveraging the school's strengths, such as its high graduation rates, will be crucial for improving student outcomes and ensuring the long-term success of Snow Hill High.
