Summary:
Keysville, Virginia, is a small town served by a single public school — Eureka Elementary — enrolling 471 students in grades PK through 5 within Charlotte County Public Schools.
Eureka Elementary is a consistently high-performing school that ranks in the 82nd percentile of Virginia schools (4 stars) for 2025–26 and has stayed within a tight 81st–86th percentile band over the past three years. The school beats the Virginia state average on every single SOL test reported across the last two school years — all 16 results. Standout strengths include 5th grade math (92.86% proficient vs. 72.39% statewide) and 5th grade science (90% vs. 68.75% statewide). What makes this especially notable: 87.9% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, yet the school posts proficiency rates 10 to 20 points above state averages in many subjects.
The one area to watch is 4th grade. In 2025–26, 4th grade math proficiency fell from 86.11% to 76.71%, dipping below the district's 84.09%, and 4th grade Virginia Studies (80%) also trailed the district (87.6%). Attendance, however, is a bright spot, with chronic absenteeism at 13.4% — better than the district's 17.4% and the state's 14.8%. The school spends $7,311 per student and maintains a 15.1 student–teacher ratio. Although Eureka is a solid 4-star school, its district, Charlotte County Public Schools, ranks 4th in Virginia with 5 stars, suggesting other district schools contribute to that elite district-wide rating.
