High Schools in King and Queen County Public Schools

Summary:

King and Queen County Public Schools in Virginia has only one high school, Central High. This school has seen fluctuating performance in recent years, ranking between 198 out of 328 Virginia high schools in 2024-2025 and 298 out of 329 in 2023-2024 on the SchoolDigger scale.

Central High's four-year graduation rate of 92.8% is higher than the state average, but its dropout rate of 4.5% is slightly above the state norm. The school's performance on Standards of Learning (SOL) tests varies, with some subject areas exceeding the state average and others falling behind. Notably, the school performed above the state average in Algebra I, English Reading, and Civics and Economics, but below the state average in Mathematics, Biology, and World History I.

Central High serves a student population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. However, the school's relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio suggest that it is allocating significant resources to support its students. These factors may be important in understanding the school's performance and identifying areas for further improvement.
