Best Public Schools in Ettrick, VA

Summary:

The city of Ettrick, Virginia has only one school, Ettrick Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 and is part of the Chesterfield County Public Schools district. Ettrick Elementary has a total enrollment of 500 students, with a racial makeup of 19% White, 66.4% African American, 8.2% Hispanic, 0.6% Asian, and 5.8% two or more races. The school's performance on standardized tests is generally below the district and state averages, and it has been ranked in the bottom half of Virginia elementary schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ettrick Elementary's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates in Mathematics, English Reading, and Science lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels. This trend has been relatively consistent over the past few years, suggesting that the school is facing challenges in effectively educating its students. The high percentage of students (81%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which could be a contributing factor to the school's academic struggles.

While Ettrick Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.6, the data does not provide information on the quality or experience of the teaching staff. Additionally, the per-student spending figure of $7,875 for the 2020-2021 school year is the only data point available, making it difficult to draw conclusions about the overall resource allocation and how it may be impacting the school's performance. Addressing the root causes of Ettrick Elementary's academic performance challenges and exploring strategies to support economically disadvantaged students could be valuable next steps in improving student outcomes.
