Summary:
The Frederick County Public Schools district in Maryland is home to 13 diverse middle schools serving students in grades 6-8. These schools vary significantly in academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation, with several standout institutions leading the way.
At the top of the pack are Urbana Middle, Oakdale Middle, and Windsor Knolls Middle, all of which rank among the best middle schools in Maryland and boast impressive proficiency rates in mathematics and English language arts. In contrast, schools like Monocacy Middle, Crestwood Middle, and Thurmont Middle struggle to meet district and state averages in academic performance.
The data also reveals significant disparities in student demographics and socioeconomic factors, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 10.79% at Oakdale Middle to 60.82% at West Frederick Middle. These differences in student populations may contribute to the observed variations in academic achievement, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and equitable resource allocation across the Frederick County Public Schools district.
