Best Public Schools in Parkville, MD

Summary:

The city of Parkville, Maryland has a single elementary school, White Oak School, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 51 students. The school is part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district, which is ranked 18 out of 24 districts in Maryland and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Based on the available data, White Oak School does not appear to be a standout performer. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Maryland elementary schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing well below average. The school's test scores are significantly lower than the district and state averages, with only 6.3% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics and English Language Arts, compared to 25.8% and 38.9% for the district, respectively. Additionally, the school's Science proficiency rate was 12.5%, also well below the district and state averages.

While White Oak School has a diverse student population and a remarkably low student-teacher ratio of 1.2, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school's high spending per student, at $125,904 for the 2020-2021 school year, raises questions about the effective use of resources and the need for a closer examination of the school's budget and resource allocation. Overall, the analysis suggests that White Oak School is struggling to provide a quality education to its students, and targeted interventions and support may be necessary to improve student outcomes.
