Oxon Hill Elementary

Q: Is Oxon Hill Elementary a good school?

Oxon Hill Elementary ranks 643 rd of 859 Maryland elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 1 star out of 5.

Summary:

Oxon Hill Elementary is a public elementary school in Oxon Hill, Maryland, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 237. The school is part of the Prince George's County Public Schools district, which is ranked 22 out of 25 in Maryland and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oxon Hill Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Maryland elementary schools, with a ranking between 643-730 out of 802-859 schools over the past several years. The school's performance on MCAP (Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program) tests is significantly below the state and district averages in both Mathematics and English Language Arts across all grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 10.5% of Oxon Hill Elementary students were proficient or better in MCAP Mathematics, compared to 24.1% statewide and 10.8% in the district. The school also has a high percentage of students from low-income families, with 85.23% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year.

While Oxon Hill Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.7, this does not appear to be significantly impacting the school's academic performance. Nearby schools, such as Flintstone Elementary, Apple Grove Elementary, and Valley View Elementary, also struggle academically, with most of them ranking in the bottom half of Maryland elementary schools. However, some of these schools, like Valley View Elementary, perform better than Oxon Hill Elementary on MCAP tests, particularly in Mathematics and English Language Arts, suggesting that factors beyond just socioeconomic status and district ranking may be contributing to the academic performance of these 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.
