Frederick County Public Schools


Summary:

The Frederick County Public Schools district in Virginia encompasses 19 schools, including 12 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 3 high schools, serving a diverse student population across a range of performance levels.

Among the standout schools, Sherando High School ranks in the top half of Virginia high schools with a 3-star rating, boasting strong test scores, particularly in Geometry, Algebra I, and Biology. Jordan Springs Elementary has shown significant improvement, moving from a 1-star to a 3-star rating, and has above-average test scores in Mathematics, Science, and English Reading. Armel Elementary has consistently maintained a 3-star rating, with strong performance in Mathematics and English Reading.

However, the data also reveals substantial performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools, with a correlation between a school's socioeconomic status, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, and its academic performance. While some schools have shown progress, many others in the district are struggling and could benefit from targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and ensure equitable access to a high-quality education for all students.
