Summary

Riverview Elementary is a public elementary school in Spotsylvania, Virginia, serving 669 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Spotsylvania County Public Schools district, which is ranked 92 out of 129 school districts in the state.

Riverview Elementary has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the years, but in the most recent school year, it ranked 555th out of 1,110 Virginia elementary schools with a 3-star rating. The school consistently outperforms the district and state in several academic areas, including mathematics, English reading, and science. Riverview also has strong performance among specific student subgroups, such as African American, Hispanic, English Language Learners, and disabled students, ranking in the top percentiles of Virginia elementary schools for these groups.

Riverview Elementary has made significant progress in reducing its chronic absenteeism rate, going from 25.6% in 2022-2023 to just 4.2% in 2023-2024. This improvement, along with the school's higher spending per student compared to the state average, suggests Riverview is effectively supporting its diverse student population, which includes a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While some nearby schools like Courthouse Road Elementary and Parkside Elementary have shown stronger performance in certain areas, Riverview Elementary remains a strong-performing school within the Spotsylvania County Public Schools district.
