Best Public Schools in Zip Code 21911

Summary:

The 21911 zip code area in Maryland is home to 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Rising Sun Elementary and Calvert Elementary) and 1 middle school (Rising Sun Middle School). These schools serve a predominantly white student population, with moderate levels of economic disadvantage.

Calvert Elementary stands out as the top-performing school in the area, with the highest overall test scores in both Mathematics and English Language Arts, significantly exceeding the Cecil County Public Schools district and Maryland state averages. The school has consistently ranked in the top 30-40% of Maryland elementary schools over the past 3 years. Rising Sun Middle School also performs well, maintaining a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past 3 years and boasting strong English Language Arts proficiency rates.

While the schools in the 21911 zip code generally perform well, there is some variation in their academic performance. Rising Sun Elementary lags behind the other schools and the district/state averages. Additionally, the relatively low percentage of non-white students in these schools may suggest potential equity concerns in terms of access and representation.
