Middle Schools in Danville City Public Schools

Summary:

The Danville City Public Schools district in Virginia operates two middle schools: O. Trent Bonner Middle and Westwood Middle. These schools serve students in grades 6-8 and face challenges common to many middle schools in the region.

Of the two schools, O. Trent Bonner Middle has higher test scores across several subject areas, including Algebra I, Algebra II, and English Reading. For example, in 2024-2025, 100% of 7th graders at O. Trent Bonner Middle were proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to 97.3% at Westwood Middle. However, both schools have relatively low statewide rankings, with O. Trent Bonner Middle ranking 329 out of 419 Virginia middle schools and Westwood Middle ranking 379 out of 419 in 2024-2025.

The data also reveals that Westwood Middle has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (107.58%) compared to O. Trent Bonner Middle (94.94%), suggesting that Westwood Middle serves a more economically disadvantaged student population. Both schools also struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates of 15.7% in the 2023-2024 school year, which may be a contributing factor to their low statewide rankings.
