Summary:
The 23974 zip code area of Lunenburg County, Virginia is home to 3 public schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Lunenburg County Public Schools district. While the schools face significant socioeconomic challenges, with high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, some standout performance is observed, particularly at Central High School.
Central High School is the top-performing school in the area, ranking 83 out of 329 Virginia high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms state and district averages in several key subject areas, including writing, Algebra I, and Biology. In contrast, Lunenburg Middle School consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of Virginia middle schools, with a 1-star rating and significantly below-average performance on standardized tests.
Victoria Elementary School also shows some bright spots, performing better than the district and state in 3rd grade mathematics and 5th grade science. However, the high rates of economic disadvantage across all three schools suggest that the district and community may need to focus on addressing systemic challenges to improve educational outcomes for all students in the 23974 zip code area.
