Greenbriar East Elementary

Summary:

Greenbriar East Elementary is a public elementary school in Fairfax, Virginia, serving 898 students in grades PK-6. The school is part of the Fairfax County Public Schools district, which is ranked 41 out of 130 school districts in Virginia and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greenbriar East has a relatively diverse student population, with 41.98% White, 20.49% Hispanic, 23.05% Asian, and 8.8% African American students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by SOL (Standards of Learning) test scores, is generally lower than the Fairfax County and Virginia state averages across various grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 63.64%, compared to 71.31% for Fairfax County and 70.11% for Virginia. Greenbriar East's statewide ranking among Virginia elementary schools has also fluctuated, ranging from 175th out of 1,110 schools in 2013-2014 (4-star rating) to 700th out of 1,114 schools in 2023-2024 (2-star rating), indicating a decline in the school's relative performance.

Interestingly, Greenbriar East's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups. In 2022-2023, the school's African American students ranked 75th out of 579 Virginia elementary schools (4-star rating), while its Hispanic students ranked 347th out of 564 schools (2-star rating). When compared to nearby schools in the Fairfax County district, such as Willow Springs Elementary and Poplar Tree Elementary, Greenbriar East generally underperforms. The school's relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (32.85% in 2022-2023) may also be a contributing factor to its lower academic performance.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
