Best Public Schools in Greensboro, MD

Summary:

The city of Greensboro, Maryland is home to a single public elementary school, Greensboro Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The school is part of the Caroline County Public Schools district, which is ranked 16 out of 25 in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greensboro Elementary School does not appear to be a standout school in the state, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 412 and 478 out of 855-862 Maryland elementary schools over the past three school years, and a 2-3 star rating from SchoolDigger. The school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with over 81% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Academically, the school's test scores, particularly in mathematics and science, are lower than the Caroline County Public Schools district and the state of Maryland averages.

Despite the school's diverse student population, with significant Hispanic and White student representation, its academic performance has been inconsistent. The school's per-student spending of $17,169 is higher than the state average, but this does not appear to be translating into strong academic outcomes. Overall, the data suggests that Greensboro Elementary School is a relatively low-performing school within the state, and further investigation and potential interventions may be needed to improve student outcomes.
