Maryland's $3.8B education bet had no scorecard — so we built one.
24 districts. 43 indicators. 685+ documents. The bright spots might surprise you.
Maryland's first official Blueprint evaluation publishes in December 2026. The earliest quantitative data comes a year later. But the Governor and legislature need to make major policy and funding decisions in the 2027 session — before the evidence is in.
The Education Trust Fund (casino revenues) runs out in FY2028.
**MarylandBlueprint.com reads every district's Blueprint implementation, scores it against a consistent rubric, and surfaces the bright spots — with source citations.**
Some highlights from the May 1, 2026 analysis:
Pillar 2 — NBC Teacher Pipeline Is a Statewide Flywheel
Baltimore County grew from 4 to 122 NBCTs (2,950%). Prince George's from 7 to 157 (2,143%). Newly certified NBCTs are being deployed as cohort coaches, creating a self-reinforcing talent pipeline. P2 is the only pillar where 9 districts already Exceed.
Pillar 4 — Community Schools Are Moving Both Attendance and Academics
Carroll County's community schools posted +24.1pp ELA and +26.9pp math gains in a single year. Somerset cut chronic absenteeism by 22.6pp while designating 100% of schools as community schools.
District Bright Spots:
- Montgomery County (76.8%) — The only district with zero pillars below "Meets." Most balanced profile statewide.
- Allegany County (74.4%, 4th overall) — A small rural district outperforming Howard, Baltimore County, and Baltimore City.
- Garrett County (69.6%) — All five pillars at "Meets." 100% of middle schoolers completing career assessments. Unlimited dual enrollment.
Built for district leaders. Essential for everyone tracking Blueprint implementation — legislators, advocates, educators, journalists, and researchers.
