Summary

Potomac View Elementary is a public magnet elementary school in Woodbridge, Virginia, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 558. While the school is part of the Prince William County Public Schools district, which is ranked 42 out of 129 school districts in Virginia, Potomac View Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Virginia elementary schools over the past several years, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Potomac View Elementary's student performance on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests is generally below the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. However, the school's performance is stronger in certain subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students, where it ranks in the top half or top quarter of Virginia elementary schools. Additionally, Potomac View Elementary has consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to the district and state averages, ranging from 14.3% to 20.0% in recent years, which can negatively impact student learning and academic achievement.

While Potomac View Elementary faces several challenges, the school is spending more per student than the district and state averages, indicating that it is investing significant resources to try to improve student outcomes. Nearby schools in the Prince William County Public Schools district, such as Leesylvania Elementary, Dale City Elementary, and Featherstone Elementary, tend to have higher student performance, lower chronic absenteeism, and lower percentages of free and reduced-price lunch recipients.
