Summary:
The city of Crewe, Virginia is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, operated by the Nottoway County Public Schools district. While the elementary school, Crewe Primary, is a standout performer, the middle and high schools in the district face significant challenges in providing equitable educational opportunities for their students.
Crewe Primary is the highest performing school in the district, consistently ranking in the top 33% of Virginia elementary schools and outperforming the district and state averages on key test scores. In contrast, Nottoway High is the lowest ranked high school in the district, though it has shown some signs of improvement in recent years. The middle schools, Nottoway Middle and Nottoway Intermediate, also appear to be struggling, with the schools underperforming compared to state averages on many key metrics.
Across the district, the schools in Crewe face significant challenges, including high poverty levels, as evidenced by the extremely high free and reduced lunch rates, and underperformance on state assessments. These equity and performance gaps suggest that the district may be facing staffing and resource challenges that need to be addressed to provide a more equitable and high-quality education for all students in Crewe.
