Best Public Schools in Ruckersville, VA

Summary:

The city of Ruckersville, Virginia is home to a single public elementary school, Ruckersville Elementary, which serves grades K-5 and has a total enrollment of 506 students. The school is part of the Greene County Public Schools district, which is ranked 100 out of 130 school districts in Virginia and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ruckersville Elementary has a mixed academic performance, with higher-than-average test scores in mathematics and reading in grades 3 and 4, but lower scores in 5th grade for mathematics, science, and reading compared to the district and state averages. The school also faces socioeconomic challenges, with a high percentage (68.18%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these challenges, Ruckersville Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.9 to 1, which is generally considered a positive indicator for student learning.

The school's ranking and rating have fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 618 out of 1,114 Virginia elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 837 out of 1,109 in 2021-2022, and its SchoolDigger rating has varied from 1 star out of 5 in 2021-2022 to 2 stars out of 5 in 2022-2023 and 2023-2024. This inconsistency suggests that the school may need to focus on improving its curriculum and instructional practices, particularly in the upper elementary grades, to ensure more consistent academic achievement and better serve the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population.
