Data table
| Series | 2019 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ELA | 23.7% | 23.5% | 34.2% | 33.1% | 34.1% | 36.7% | 38.4% |
| Math | 27.3% | 18.9% | 27.2% | 30.9% | 29.1% | 31.1% | 32.1% |
| Science | 13.3% | 26.4% | 23.8% | 27.4% | 13.4% | 19.6% | 25% |
Testing paused in 2020. Science scoring changed twice (2019 pre-MCAP scale; 2021 three bands, two pooled administrations; four bands from 2022), so science points before 2022 aren't comparable to later ones. Science swung sharply statewide between 2023 and 2026 (down, then back up, one grade at a time); those moves likely reflect the state assessment, not school-level change.
Class size
Average class size by grade band over recent years, with the latest year measured against MCPS's published guideline.
