Best Public Schools in Montross, VA


Summary:

The city of Montross, Virginia is home to two schools: Westmoreland High and Montross Middle, both part of the Westmoreland County Public Schools district. While Montross Middle stands out as a high-performing institution, Westmoreland High appears to be underperforming compared to state averages.

Montross Middle consistently ranks higher than Westmoreland High in statewide SchoolDigger rankings, with a 3-star rating compared to Westmoreland High's 1-star rating. Montross Middle also boasts significantly higher proficiency rates than the state averages across multiple subject areas, including mathematics, science, and English reading. This is particularly impressive given that the school serves a high-need population, with 100.65% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

In contrast, Westmoreland High struggles to meet state averages in several subjects, including English reading and Virginia/US History. The school's consistently low statewide rankings and 1-star rating from SchoolDigger suggest it is an area of concern. The data also reveals that both schools serve economically disadvantaged populations, with very high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This highlights the importance of ensuring equitable access to quality education for all students in the Montross area.
