Best Public Schools in Zip Code 21623


Summary:

The 21623 zip code is home to a single public elementary school, Church Hill Elementary School, which serves grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 256 students. While the school's academic performance is below the county and state averages in some areas, it shows stronger results in the early grades and benefits from significant financial resources and staffing.

Church Hill Elementary School has a predominantly White student population (73.44%), with smaller percentages of Hispanic (11.72%), African American (4.69%), and students of two or more races (10.16%). The school's proficiency rates on the MCAP assessments are 32.7% in Mathematics and 44.9% in English Language Arts, compared to 28.7% and 58.5% for Queen Anne's County Public Schools, respectively. However, the school's performance is more competitive in the 3rd and 4th grades, suggesting it may be doing a better job of preparing students in the earlier grades.

With 50.78% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Church Hill Elementary serves a population with significant economic challenges. The school's relatively high per-student spending ($17,925) and low student-teacher ratio (12.4:1) indicate that it has access to substantial financial resources and staffing, which could be a contributing factor to its academic performance. However, the lack of demographic diversity in the student population may suggest potential barriers to access for underrepresented groups in the community.
