New data shows almost twice as many PGCPS students failing over last year

New data shows students in Prince George’s County Public Schools are failing at a rate nearly double this time last year.

FOX 5 has been working to get data on student achievement since January and finally got it this week through an open records request.

The data shows elementary students have been impacted the worst year over year, with nearly three times as many children failing.

The numbers the school district provided look at students failing at least one core subject for the second quarter. District-wide, there are over 40,000 students in that category, which has nearly doubled compared to last year. That’s despite enrollment being down over 4,600 students and over 3,300 being classified as “whereabouts unknown” after missing at least 10 days unexcused.

  1. PGCPS has many undocumented students enrolled – teachers and staff cannot say a thing about it. They speak no English, complete no work and do not come to school. What did anyone think would happen?

  2. These schools are creating a whole new class of demoncrap voters.

    Dumb, dumb, dumb, and always ready to grieve about something.

  3. Learning hubs? Adults in community “chipping in” to provide oversight to small groups of students? Hw about the people who are actually being paid to teach kids get back in classroom and teach the kids? Sheesh!
