High Schools in Baltimore County Public Schools


Summary:

The Baltimore County Public Schools district in Maryland is home to 30 high schools that vary in size, student demographics, academic performance, and other key metrics. The data reveals stark disparities in student outcomes, with some schools consistently ranking among the top in the state while others struggle to meet proficiency standards.

The standout schools in the district include Eastern Technical High School, a magnet school with exceptional academic performance, as well as Dulaney High School and Catonsville High School, which also demonstrate strong achievement. Magnet and specialized schools like George W. Carver Center for Arts & Technology and Western School of Technology consistently outperform their peers, suggesting that targeted programs and admissions processes may be effective in supporting high-achieving students.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance, with a clear correlation between socioeconomic status and student outcomes. Schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, such as Owings Mills High and Rosedale Center, tend to have lower proficiency rates. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the achievement gaps within the Baltimore County Public Schools district.
