Schools in Zip Code 20841

Summary:

Zip code 20841 is home to a single, high-performing public school: Cabin Branch Elementary, which serves grades PK through 5 and is part of the highly-rated Montgomery County Public Schools district.

Cabin Branch Elementary is an academic standout, ranking in the 90th percentile statewide (83rd out of 864 elementary schools) and earning a 5-star rating. The school dramatically outperforms both its district and state averages. In Mathematics, 68.2% of students are proficient, nearly double the district average of 36.9% and more than 2.5 times the state average of 27.1%. English Language Arts proficiency is also strong at 75.6%, compared to the district's 58.5% and state's 51.7%. While Science proficiency (43.4%) is above district and state averages, it represents the school's relative weak point. The school also shows strong year-over-year growth, with Math proficiency rising from 61.4% to 68.2% and ELA from 68.9% to 75.6%.

Supporting this academic success is a positive school environment. Chronic absenteeism is notably low at 14.7%, well below the district average of 22.6%, indicating strong attendance. The school benefits from a favorable student-teacher ratio of 15.3:1 and per-student spending of $21,134. While a typical "grade slump" is observed—with 5th-grade Math (56.6%) and ELA (68.4%) scores lower than 3rd-grade levels—these scores still significantly outpace district averages. With 28.06% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch, the school serves a relatively low proportion of economically disadvantaged students compared to state averages, creating a strong foundation for its exceptional performance.
