Summary:
The Buena Vista City Public Schools district in Virginia has only one high school, Parry McCluer High, which serves grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 330 students. The district is ranked 40 out of 130 school districts in Virginia and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
Parry McCluer High has a predominantly White student population (87.88%), with smaller percentages of other racial/ethnic groups. The school's academic performance on state assessments is mixed, with some subject areas and grade levels performing above the state average, while others fall below. The school's ranking has remained relatively consistent over the past three years, ranking between 185 and 225 out of all Virginia high schools. However, the school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (86.06%) suggests that it serves a population with significant economic challenges, and its spending per student ($8,771) is lower than the state average.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.3 to 1, which could be a positive factor, the uneven academic outcomes and economic challenges faced by the student population indicate a need for school administrators and policymakers to identify and address the underlying factors that may be contributing to these issues. By analyzing the data and implementing targeted interventions, the Buena Vista City Public Schools can work to enhance the educational experiences and outcomes for the students at Parry McCluer High.
