Summary:
In zip code 21915, there is one high school, Bohemia Manor High School, serving grades 9 through 12 in Chesapeake City, Maryland, as part of the Cecil County Public Schools district.
Bohemia Manor High School presents a mixed academic profile. The school excels in English Language Arts, with 64.7% of students proficient, significantly outperforming both the district (46.9%) and state (51.7%) averages. However, mathematics proficiency is critically low at just 3.2%, far below the district (20.5%) and state (27.1%) levels. This extreme gap between subjects is the school's most notable feature. Despite the math struggles, the school maintains a strong graduation rate of 93.4% and a low dropout rate of 4.7%, both better than district averages. The school has a stable 3-star state ranking, placing it in the 60th percentile of Maryland high schools.
Key areas of concern include chronic absenteeism at 24.1%, which is slightly higher than the district average of 21.9%. The school spends $20,396 per student, a substantial amount that does not appear to be translating into math success. With 40.78% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch, the school serves a moderately diverse socioeconomic population. The student-teacher ratio is 13.5:1, allowing for relatively small class sizes. For parents, the school offers strong ELA instruction and high graduation rates, but the extremely low math proficiency warrants careful attention and inquiry into math support and curriculum.
