Best Public Schools in Alexandria, VA

Summary:

The city of Alexandria, Virginia is home to 53 schools, including 39 elementary schools, 7 middle schools, and 7 high schools, spanning two school districts - Alexandria City Public Schools and Fairfax County Public Schools. The data reveals stark disparities in educational outcomes, with some schools like Thomas Jefferson High for Science and Technology and Waynewood Elementary ranking among the top 5-10% of schools in Virginia, while others like Glasgow Middle and Mount Vernon High struggle in the bottom 10-20%.

The data suggests a strong correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance, with the highest-performing schools having much lower free and reduced lunch rates compared to the lower-ranked schools. For example, Thomas Jefferson High has a 10.83% free/reduced lunch rate, while John Adams Elementary has a rate of 95.62%. Additionally, student-teacher ratios do not appear to be the sole driver of success, as some of the top-performing schools have relatively high ratios.

Overall, the data highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the significant disparities in educational outcomes across Alexandria's schools. While specialized schools like Thomas Jefferson High and Bryant High demonstrate exceptional performance, the broader landscape reveals a system that is struggling to provide equitable access to high-quality education for all students in the city.
