Windsor Hills Elementary/Middle

Summary:

Windsor Hills Elementary/Middle is a public school in Baltimore, Maryland that serves 216 students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. The school is part of the Baltimore City Public Schools district, which is ranked 24th out of 25 districts in Maryland and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Windsor Hills faces significant challenges, with consistently low test scores and rankings compared to nearby schools. The school has a much higher percentage of African American students (90.74%) than the surrounding area, and a very high rate of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (74% to 87.04%). Despite spending more per student ($24,368) than nearby schools, Windsor Hills underperforms the Hilton Elementary, KIPP Harmony Academy, and other neighboring schools in both Mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 14.3% of Windsor Hills students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 10.2% for Baltimore City and 24.1% for Maryland.

The persistent underperformance and high rates of poverty at Windsor Hills suggest that the school faces significant challenges that require a comprehensive approach to address the root causes and improve student outcomes. While the nearby schools also struggle with low performance, Windsor Hills stands out as one of the lowest-performing schools in the area, presenting opportunities for targeted interventions, additional resources, and collaborative efforts with the community to support the students and families it serves.

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.
