Among 1,139 elementary schools in Virginia with comparable records, this school is smaller than the reported median of 503 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 2th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
The reported student–teacher ratio is 14.3:1, close to the Virginia median of 13.9:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.
The two largest reported race and ethnicity groups are White (78.5%) and Hispanic or Latino (17.2%). English learners represent 6.2% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 9.9%. These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.
