Summary

Concord Elementary is a PK–5 public school in Concord, Virginia, serving 406 students as part of Campbell County Public Schools, a district ranked in the upper half of Virginia school divisions. The school has historically earned 3-star ratings and sits in the middle-to-upper range of Virginia elementary schools, though its most recent ranking slipped to the 50th percentile. Nearly four out of five students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, yet Concord continues to post academic results that rival or beat schools with far more resources.

Mathematics is Concord's clear standout subject. In 2025-2026, 4th grade math proficiency reached 83.1% and 5th grade math reached 86.36%—both well above district and state averages. The school also boasts one of the lowest chronic absenteeism rates in the region at just 5.6%, less than half the district rate and well below the state's 14.8%. Nearby schools such as Perrymont Elementary (33.3%) and Sheffield Elementary (23.0%) struggle with far higher absenteeism. Concord achieves these results while spending just $9,063 per student—far less than schools like Dearington Elementary/Innovation ($15,178) that produce much lower scores.

Concord consistently outperforms the Lynchburg City elementary schools within a 12-mile radius, including Perrymont, Robert S. Payne Elementary, Dearington, Sheffield, and William M. Bass Elementary, by substantial margins in math and reading. It also edges out nearby Rustburg Elementary in most subjects and attendance. However, the school saw a notable decline in reading and science in 2025-2026, with 3rd grade reading dropping from 69.9% to 58.6% and 5th grade reading from 83.0% to 69.7%. Appomattox Elementary, a similar peer school about 8 miles away, now leads in reading and science. Sustaining literacy gains will be key for Concord to maintain its strong reputation as a cost-efficient, high-attendance school that punches above its weight.
