Clearview Elementary faces several academic challenges. Its performance on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests is generally lower than the Fairfax County and Virginia state averages across various grade levels and subjects, particularly in mathematics and English reading. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Clearview's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 50.57%, compared to 75.55% for Fairfax County and 72.89% for Virginia. The school has also experienced a concerning trend of increasing chronic absenteeism, rising from 11.5% in the 2022-2023 school year to 15.7% in the 2023-2024 school year.
