Summary:
The city of Alberta, Virginia has only one school in the data set - Red Oak-Sturgeon Elementary, which serves grades PK-5. This school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Virginia elementary schools and received a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating it is a low-performing institution facing significant challenges.
Red Oak-Sturgeon Elementary has a high percentage of African American students (70.79%) and a very high percentage of students (99.5%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting the school serves a population with a high level of economic disadvantage. The school's test scores are generally below the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels, with only a few areas of relative strength. Spending per student at $8,623 is also below the state average, which may be a contributing factor to the school's performance.
While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13:1, which is generally considered a positive factor for student learning, the data indicates that Brunswick County Public Schools as a district is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. Further analysis and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the issues at Red Oak-Sturgeon Elementary and improve educational outcomes for the school's students.
