Summary

Round Hill Elementary is a public elementary school in Roanoke, Virginia, serving 704 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Roanoke City Public Schools district, which is ranked 114 out of 129 districts in the state.

Round Hill Elementary faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, well below average test scores in reading, math, and science compared to the district and state, and an extremely high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's performance, as measured by its statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating, has declined over the past several years, from a ranking of 610 out of 1,097 Virginia elementary schools and a 2-star rating in 2017-2018 to a ranking of 1,037 out of 1,110 schools and a 0-star rating in 2024-2025. Nearby schools in the Roanoke City district, such as Fallon Park Elementary, Hurt Park Elementary, and Monterey Elementary, also struggle with low performance, while other schools like Highland Park Elementary and Virginia Heights Elementary perform significantly better.

To address these challenges, Round Hill Elementary and the Roanoke City Public Schools district may consider implementing targeted interventions to improve chronic absenteeism, reviewing and aligning the school's curriculum and instructional practices, leveraging the strategies of higher-performing nearby schools, and allocating additional resources to support the needs of the predominantly low-income student population. By addressing these key areas of concern, the school may be able to reverse the trend of declining performance and better support the academic and social-emotional needs of its students.
