Best Public Schools in Zip Code 23235


Summary:

The 23235 zip code area in Virginia is home to 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 2 middle schools, which are part of the Chesterfield County Public Schools and Richmond City Public Schools districts. While the schools in this area vary in their performance, Greenfield Elementary and Bon Air Elementary stand out as the top-performing schools, consistently outperforming the district and state averages on standardized tests.

The data reveals stark differences in school performance, with J.B. Fisher Elementary, part of the Richmond City Public Schools district, lagging behind the district and state averages on test scores. This suggests that students in the same zip code can have vastly different educational experiences and outcomes depending on which school they attend. The schools with the highest free and reduced lunch rates, a proxy for socioeconomic status, tend to have the lowest test scores, highlighting the strong link between poverty and academic achievement.

The two middle schools, Manchester Middle and Providence Middle, have more mixed results, with some areas above average and others below. This suggests that district-level factors, such as funding, resources, and policies, can have a significant impact on student outcomes. The lower-performing schools may benefit from targeted interventions and additional support to help close the achievement gap with their higher-performing peers.
