The Maryland State Department of Education has released its annual Maryland School Report Card for the 2023-2024 academic year. Positive trends were revealed, with 41% of schools earning the top two ratings of four or five stars, indicating progress in school quality and student achievement. The report includes results from all districts and schools across Maryland, measuring academic performance, English language proficiency, and school quality, as well as non-academic indicators like school climate and chronic absenteeism. Dr. Carey M. Wright, State Superintendent of Schools, highlighted ongoing efforts to refine the state’s accountability system for clearer evaluations. Notable results include Prince George’s County, Montgomery County, and Frederick County Public Schools showing improvements. Maryland is moving towards implementing a new assessment system by 2026-27, with a focus on transparency and using data to drive success. Detailed reports can be accessed on the MSDE website.
