About Chatsworth School
Chatsworth School earns an Exceptional composite score of 9.3 out of 10, ranking 17th among 1,363 public schools in Maryland and outperforming 99% of the state. It also holds the top spot among the seven public schools in Reisterstown. These aren't marginal advantages — Chatsworth sits at the 99th percentile across the full Maryland school population, a position very few public schools reach.
For a PK–5 school of 289 students, the numbers stand out. A 10-to-1 student-teacher ratio means teachers carry lighter loads than most public elementary classrooms, and that access shows up in outcomes. Chatsworth's growth score of 9.9 out of 10 is the strongest signal here — students advance faster than peers at nearly every school in the state.
Academic performance reinforces the picture, scoring 8.9 out of 10. Together, those marks place Chatsworth 17th among 882 public elementary schools statewide — a ranking that holds even when the comparison narrows to only schools serving the same grade bands. Parents choosing between Reisterstown schools will find no public elementary in the area that scores higher.
