Summary:
The 22960 zip code area is home to 3 schools - Orange County High, Orange Elementary, and Prospect Heights Middle. These schools serve a diverse student population, with varying levels of academic performance and socioeconomic factors that influence their success.
Orange County High stands out as a relatively large high school with strong performance in several SOL subject tests, particularly in Geometry, Algebra I, and English Reading/Writing. However, the school struggles more in subjects like World History I and II. In contrast, Orange Elementary performs well in Mathematics and English Reading, but lags behind in Science and VA Studies. Prospect Heights Middle excels in Algebra I, but its performance in other Mathematics and Science subjects is relatively weaker compared to the district and state averages.
The schools in this zip code serve a high-need population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 43.36% to 67.98%. This suggests that the schools may face additional challenges in supporting their students' academic and social-emotional needs. The higher spending per student at the middle and elementary schools compared to the high school may indicate a focus on early intervention and support, which is further reflected in the smaller student-teacher ratios at the middle and elementary schools. Overall, the data provides insights into the strengths, areas for improvement, and the socioeconomic factors that influence the performance of these schools within the Orange County Public Schools district.
