Maugansville Elementary does not appear to be a standout school in the state, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 400 and 443 out of 859-862 Maryland elementary schools over the past three school years and a 3-star rating in the most recent year. The school's proficiency rates in MCAP Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) are generally lower than the Washington County Public Schools and Maryland state averages, particularly in 5th-grade where only 20% were proficient or better in Mathematics and 33% in ELA. However, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.5 to 1, which could indicate efficient resource allocation and more personalized attention for students.

The high percentage of students (63.76%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Maugansville Elementary suggests that the school may face challenges related to socioeconomic factors, which can impact academic achievement. While the school's overall performance is relatively average within the state, there may be opportunities for improvement, particularly in addressing the academic needs of its economically disadvantaged student population.
