Best Public Schools in Park Hall, MD

Summary:

The city of Park Hall, Maryland is home to a single elementary school, Park Hall Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 and has a total enrollment of 501 students. The school is part of the St. Mary's County Public Schools district, which is ranked 8th out of 25 districts in Maryland and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Park Hall Elementary has a diverse student population, with 32.14% White, 40.32% African American, 10.18% Hispanic, and other racial groups represented, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, dropping from 373 out of 862 Maryland elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 473 out of 859 in 2023-2024. This suggests the school's performance may be declining relative to other elementary schools in the state. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally below the district and state averages in both Mathematics and English Language Arts across all grade levels, particularly in 5th-grade Mathematics and Science proficiency rates.

Another notable factor is the high percentage of students (63.07%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Park Hall Elementary, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. This could be a contributing factor to the school's academic performance and may require targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of this student population. Overall, the data suggests that Park Hall Elementary faces challenges in providing a high-quality education to its diverse student body, and continued monitoring and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve the school's performance.
