Glyndon Elementary

Summary:

Glyndon Elementary is a public elementary school in Reisterstown, Maryland, serving 537 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Baltimore County Public Schools district, which is ranked 17th out of 25 districts in Maryland and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Glyndon Elementary faces several challenges, including a significantly higher percentage of African American and Hispanic students (73%) compared to nearby schools, consistently underperforming on state and district assessments in Mathematics and English Language Arts, and particularly low performance for African American and male students. The school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 45.22% to 67.38% over the past three school years, indicating a high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. Despite this, Glyndon Elementary's per-student spending is higher than the nearby schools, ranging from $12,688 to $14,030 over the past three school years.

While Glyndon Elementary's performance is generally lower than the nearby schools, there are some exceptions. For example, Chatsworth School, a public magnet school, significantly outperforms Glyndon Elementary and the other nearby schools in both Mathematics and ELA assessments. The declining performance of Glyndon Elementary, with its statewide ranking dropping from 376 out of 867 Maryland elementary schools in 2013-2014 to 617 out of 859 in 2023-2024, and its SchoolDigger rating decreasing from 3 stars to 1 star during this period, presents an opportunity for the school district and school leadership to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the specific needs of the student population and improve academic outcomes.

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.
