Summary:
The 20735 zip code area of Prince George's County, Maryland is home to 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Prince George's County Public Schools district. While the schools in this area serve a diverse, economically disadvantaged student population, there are notable differences in their academic performance.
Francis T. Evans Elementary stands out as the top-performing school, with students significantly outperforming the district and state averages in both math and English language arts. In contrast, Waldon Woods Elementary has the lowest proficiency rates, well below the district and state levels. The data suggests that factors beyond just funding and resources, such as socioeconomic status, may be contributing to these disparities in academic performance.
While the overall performance of these schools is below the state average, the data also reveals that some schools, like Clinton Grove Elementary, are able to outperform the district and state in certain areas, such as English language arts. This suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement and the potential to share best practices across the schools in this area, particularly those serving a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
