Dickenson County Public Schools


Summary:

The Dickenson County Public Schools district in Virginia consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The district is characterized by a largely homogeneous student population, with the majority being white, and high rates of economic disadvantage, as evidenced by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Among the schools in the district, Ridgeview High School and Ridgeview Middle School stand out as the top performers. Ridgeview High School ranks 139 out of 326 Virginia high schools, the highest in the district, and has the highest test scores, exceeding state averages in several subjects. Ridgeview Middle School ranks 154 out of 422 Virginia middle schools, the highest in the district, and also outperforms the district and state averages in multiple subjects. Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, which may contribute to their academic success.

In contrast, the three elementary schools in the district, Clintwood Elementary, Sandlick Elementary, and Ervinton Elementary, have more varied performance, with Ervinton Elementary spending the most per student but not necessarily achieving the best academic outcomes. The district as a whole faces significant economic challenges, with all schools having very high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating the need for additional support and resources to address the needs of the student population.
