Best Public Schools in Zip Code 20748

Summary:

The 20748 zip code area of Prince George's County, Maryland is home to 10 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. This diverse educational landscape features a mix of traditional public schools and specialized magnet/charter programs, with significant disparities in academic performance across the institutions.

The standout schools in the area are Maya Angelou French Immersion, a public magnet elementary/middle school that ranks 3 out of 5 stars on SchoolDigger and significantly outperforms the Prince George's County Public Schools district and the state of Maryland in both math and English language arts proficiency. Another high-performing school is Imagine Lincoln PCS, a public charter elementary/middle school that ranks 2 out of 5 stars and also exceeds the district and state averages in English language arts.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities, with some schools like Thurgood Marshall Middle and Benjamin Stoddert Middle struggling academically, with less than 25% of students meeting proficiency standards in many grade levels and subjects. These challenges are often associated with high-poverty student populations, highlighting the need for targeted interventions and additional resources to support the lowest-performing institutions and ensure more equitable educational outcomes for all students in the 20748 zip code area.
