This public school serves grades PK-5 and consistently outperforms county and state averages on standardized tests, ranking in the top 25% of Maryland elementary schools with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past 3 years.

Sharpsburg Elementary boasts particularly strong performance in 3rd grade Math and English, with over 50% of students proficient or better, as well as a 5th grade Science proficiency rate of 37.9% that exceeds the county and state averages. The school's student body is predominantly White (92.55%), with small percentages of Hispanic (3.72%), two or more races (3.15%), and African American (0.57%) students. While 36.96% of Sharpsburg Elementary students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, the school's relatively high spending of $13,228 per student suggests it has access to adequate resources to support its educational programs.

Overall, Washington County Public Schools is fortunate to have a high-performing, well-resourced elementary school like Sharpsburg serving the 21782 zip code. However, the limited racial diversity and relatively high free/reduced lunch rate indicate that there may be room for improvement in ensuring equitable access and outcomes for all students in the school.
