Best Public Schools in Zip Code 23921


Summary:

The 23921 zip code area in Virginia is home to two public schools - Buckingham County High School and Buckingham County Middle School, both operated by the Buckingham County Public Schools district. While the data shows no clear standout performers, the schools face significant challenges related to academic achievement, poverty, and diversity.

Both Buckingham County High School and Buckingham County Middle School consistently perform below state averages on standardized tests, with the high school ranking in the bottom 20% of Virginia high schools and the middle school in the bottom 25% of Virginia middle schools. This low academic performance is likely exacerbated by the extremely high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at both schools, which exceed 92% - indicating that the student population faces significant socioeconomic challenges. Additionally, the student populations at these schools are predominantly White and African American, with very low representation of other racial and ethnic groups.

While the per-student spending at Buckingham County High School ($10,442) is higher than at Buckingham County Middle School ($7,817), both figures suggest that funding may be a concern and could contribute to the differences in performance between the two schools. Overall, the data paints a picture of a community struggling to provide its students with the resources and support they need to succeed academically. Targeted interventions and increased investment in these schools may be necessary to improve student outcomes in the 23921 zip code area.
