[quote=ModeratelyMoco]I just wanted to add because it doesn't appear anyone posted it, but we did some analysis on the various MCPS demographics and subjects from this MCAP report

https://moderatelymoco.com/mcps-hispanic-economically-disadvantaged-students-in-bottom-half-of-state-while-disabled-black-african-american-learners-shine-latest-testing-results/

Here were the notable conclusions when compared to the rest of the state:

Needs Improvement
Two areas stand out in the MCAP results as needing the most improvement compared to other Maryland counties.

The first is Hispanic/Latino Students where MCPS averaged a state ranking of 14.9 (in the bottom half of all counties for nearly every subject and grade level) and an average proficiency score of 20.46%

The second is Economically Disadvantaged Students who averaged a state ranking of 12.8 (in the bottom half of all counties for all but 3 subjects and grade levels) and an average proficiency score of 21.03

Bright Spots
There are some bright spots worth mentioning. Black / African American students in MCPS on average ranked 4.1 amongst county’s Black / African American populations with a 30.09% proficiency.

Students with Disabilities had MCPS’s best rankings with on average a 1.9 ranking and 15.44% proficiency.

While these last two don’t necessarily reflect great proficiencies, they do show some strengths of MCPS compared to other Maryland counties and are higher than MCPS overall rankings.

We also did an update to previous pieces on the 2024 MCPS MCAP data for Geometry compared to other recent years:
