Best Public Schools in Morganza, MD

Summary:

The city of Morganza, Maryland is served by a single public high school, Chopticon High School, which is part of the St. Mary's County Public Schools district. Chopticon High School serves grades 9-12 and has a student population of 1,682, with a diverse racial makeup and a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.

Academically, Chopticon High School has shown mixed performance. While the school excels in English Language Arts proficiency, with rates higher than the state and county averages, it struggles in mathematics and Algebra I, with proficiency rates well below the state and county levels. The school's statewide ranking and overall rating have also fluctuated in recent years, indicating inconsistent performance. The school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio are in line with national averages, but the high free and reduced-price lunch rate suggests that the school may need to focus on providing additional support and resources for its economically disadvantaged student population.

Overall, Chopticon High School appears to be the sole public high school serving the Morganza area, and its performance is a mix of strengths and challenges. While the school excels in certain academic areas, it faces challenges in others, and its inconsistent rankings and ratings suggest a need for further investigation and potential improvement efforts to ensure that all students receive a high-quality education.
