Glenridge Elementary

Summary:

Glenridge Elementary is a public elementary school in Landover Hills, Maryland, serving 769 students in grades PK-6. Despite spending significantly more per student than nearby schools, Glenridge consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Maryland elementary schools and struggles with low academic performance, particularly among Hispanic and low-income students.

Glenridge's academic performance on state assessments is significantly below the county and state averages across all grades and subjects. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 5.4% of Glenridge students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 10.8% in the Prince George's County Public Schools district and 24.1% statewide. The school's Hispanic students rank in the bottom 3% of Maryland elementary schools in English Language Arts. Nearby schools with similar student demographics, such as Beacon Heights Elementary and Woodridge Elementary, are outperforming Glenridge on state assessments.

The high percentage of minority students (34.2% African American and 58.52% Hispanic) and students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (72.26% to 86.35%) at Glenridge may be contributing to the school's low academic performance. Additionally, Glenridge has a higher student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools, which could also be a factor in the school's underperformance. While Glenridge spends more per student, its academic outcomes are not commensurate with the higher spending, suggesting that additional resources and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve outcomes for Glenridge students.

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.
