The most amazing school My children have ever been to and trust me we've been to plenty!
—Submitted by a parent


Posted August 10, 2007

Great small school environment with involved parents. Teachers are connected to the students and the school, and many of them go the extra mile with students. There are plenty of after school opportunities with the PTA. Strong sense of pride by students. Am pleased my kids go there.

It is small with a very diverse student population. It is also an excellent school with highly qualified caring teachers and support staff. Great academic environment where children are happy and always challeged -but more importantly, eager-- to do their best.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Virginia used the Standards of Learning (SOL) tests to assess students in reading and math in grades 3 through 8, writing in grades 5 and 8, science in grades in 3, 5 and 8, and history in grades 3 through 8. The SOL tests are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Virginia. The goal is for all students to pass the tests.
