Glen Burnie Park Elementary

Summary:

Glen Burnie Park Elementary is a public elementary school in Glen Burnie, Maryland, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Anne Arundel County Public Schools district.

Glen Burnie Park Elementary has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of African American and Hispanic students compared to nearby schools like Severn Elementary and Quarterfield Elementary. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by MCAP test scores, is generally lower than the county and state averages, with proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts below the district and state levels. This may be partly due to the school's high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 76.69% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than nearby schools.

Compared to other schools in the area, Glen Burnie Park Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Maryland elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school also faces challenges such as significant achievement gaps between different racial groups and a declining enrollment trend, which could lead to reduced funding and resources. While the school's spending per student has increased in recent years, this has not yet translated into significant improvements in academic performance, indicating the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges faced by the school and its diverse student population.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
