Summary:
The city of Afton, Virginia is home to a single elementary school, Rockfish River Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 and has a total enrollment of 268 students. The school is part of the Nelson County Public Schools district, which is ranked 47 out of 130 districts in Virginia and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Rockfish River Elementary has generally performed well on state assessments, with proficiency rates often exceeding the district and state averages. The school's students have shown consistent academic performance, with proficiency rates remaining stable or improving across most subject areas and grade levels over the past two school years. However, the school faces some socioeconomic challenges, with a high percentage (78.73%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite these challenges, Rockfish River Elementary appears to be effectively serving its diverse student population. The school's higher-than-average per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratio suggest that the district is allocating resources to support the school and its students, which may contribute to its strong academic performance. While the school is performing well, there may be opportunities for further improvement, particularly in areas where the school's proficiency rates are slightly below the district or state averages.
