Kenmore Elementary

Kenmore Elementary earns a composite score of 9.0 out of 10 — rated Exceptional — serving 267 students from pre-kindergarten through fifth grade in Elkton, Maryland. The academic score of 8.8 is strong on its own, but the growth score of 9.6 is the real signal. Growth measures how much students advance year over year relative to academically similar peers across the state.

A 9.6 places Kenmore near the top of that metric statewide, meaning the instruction here is actively accelerating student progress — not just reflecting favorable incoming demographics. That performance carries across every comparison. Kenmore ranks #1 of 10 public schools in Elkton and sits at #44 of 1,363 public schools in Maryland, outperforming 97% of schools statewide.

Narrowed to elementary schools specifically, it holds #43 of 882 — confirming the school's strength against its most direct peer group. A 13.3-to-1 student-teacher ratio keeps class sizes manageable throughout the building. Kenmore operates as a regular public school with standard enrollment and no selective admissions, so these scores reflect performance across a general student population.

Located in a rural area, Kenmore Elementary may involve longer commutes for some families. Rural schools often serve as community anchors and may have smaller class sizes, but parents should consider transportation logistics, after-school program availability, and access to specialized services.
