Nearly 90 percent (88.8%) of Baltimore County’s 160 public schools evaluated in the new Maryland Report Card received 3, 4 or 5 star ratings. Sixty percent earned 4 or 5 star ratings, the highest ratings possible in the state’s new accountability system.

Ninety-nine percent of Baltimore County’s elementary schools received 3, 4 or 5 stars, and 73 percent earned 4 or 5 star ratings.

“While we are pleased that our school system, overall, compared favorably with others in the state,” Interim Superintendent Verletta White said, “we are fully engaged in elevating the performance of all schools – through our budget process, staffing, curriculum development, support services, professional development, and community partnerships. We are working to ensure that all of our schools are high-performing schools in the eyes of their communities and according to the data. I am grateful to our teachers and staff for providing daily, high-quality educational experiences across the county and at every grade level. Our students and communities deserve nothing less.”

The state’s new accountability system, designed in response to the federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), uses many factors – such as students’ academic achievement, progress, and graduation rates – to assess school performance. Each school is awarded points in several categories. Those awarded points are measured against possible points, and the resulting percentage is used to compare the school against other Maryland schools and to determine star ratings, from 5, highest performing, to 1, lowest performing. Detailed report cards for all BCPS schools and for the school system are available on the state’s Report Card website.
