Chadwick Elementary

Summary:

Chadwick Elementary is a public elementary school in Baltimore, Maryland, serving students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade as part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district. With a diverse student population, Chadwick stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts, where it consistently outperforms the district and state averages.

One of Chadwick's key strengths is the exceptional performance of its low-income students, who rank 112th out of 546 Maryland elementary schools in this subgroup. However, the school faces challenges in the academic achievement of its Asian and African American student subgroups, which perform below the state average. Despite these disparities, Chadwick has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, with its highest ranking being 256th out of 859 Maryland elementary schools in the 2014-2015 school year.

Compared to nearby schools, Chadwick has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 43.7% to 72.64% over the past three school years. This is higher than Westowne Elementary (59.47%) and Watershed Public Charter (39.37%), but lower than Edmondson Heights Elementary (69.59%) and Dogwood Elementary (73.47%). Additionally, Chadwick's spending per student has increased from $12,277 in the 2019-2020 school year to $14,855 in the 2020-2021 school year, which is higher than the nearby schools.

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.
