Summary:
Brunswick County Public Schools in Virginia is served by a single high school, Brunswick High, located in Lawrenceville, VA, which enrolls 404 students in grades 9–12 and maintains a low 13.2 student-to-teacher ratio. Because Brunswick High is the only high school in Brunswick County Public Schools, district-wide measures simply mirror this one school's performance.
Brunswick High has climbed steadily in Virginia's statewide ranking, moving from the 4th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 25th percentile in 2025–2026. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate is 87.2%, below the state's 92.3%, but the dropout rate of 2.9% is far better than the state's 5.0%, and chronic absenteeism of 10.9% also beats the state average of 14.8%. Per-student spending is $8,542. SOL results are mixed: Geometry in 9th grade reached 100% proficiency in 2025–2026, and 11th-grade VA & US History jumped from 27.66% to 73.08%, well above the state's 34.52%. However, Algebra I (75.61% vs. 80.21%) and English Reading (80.18% vs. 88.13%) trail the state, and World History I remains a concern at 53.54% proficiency compared to the 72.24% state average.
The most encouraging trends are the large year-over-year gains in several subjects, including a 45-point jump in 11th-grade VA & US History and a 35-point gain in 11th-grade Biology. These swings partly reflect small cohort sizes, so extreme values should be interpreted with some caution. The free/reduced lunch rate is reported at 101.49%, which is a data anomaly and should not be used as a reliable measure of poverty. Overall, Brunswick High shows clear positive momentum in ranking, attendance, and dropout prevention, even as Algebra I, English Reading, and World History I continue to need support.
