Summary

Reams Road Elementary is a PK–5 school in North Chesterfield, VA, serving 612 students within Chesterfield County Public Schools, a district ranked near the midpoint of Virginia's 131 districts. The school is one of several high-poverty elementary schools in this part of the county — about 77% of its students qualify for free/reduced lunch, the highest rate among nearby non-virtual schools, just ahead of Crestwood Elementary, Bon Air Elementary, Providence Elementary, and A.M. Davis Elementary.

Academically, Reams Road trails district and state averages in most tested subjects, but there are meaningful bright spots. The school posted a 75.59% proficiency rate in 5th grade science — comfortably above both the district (71.23%) and state (68.75%) averages — and outperformed similar-poverty peers on that test. The school's overall state ranking has climbed from the 21st percentile (2023-2024) to the 27th (2024-2025) and now the 37th percentile (2025-2026), driven by strong gains in 4th and 5th grade math and reading. Still, it remains well below affluent nearby schools like W.W. Gordon Elementary and J.B. Watkins Elementary, which rank in the state's top 100 and serve far fewer low-income students.

Reams Road spends more per student ($9,444) and maintains a lower student-teacher ratio (11.0:1) than nearly every nearby elementary school, including higher-performing W.W. Gordon Elementary and J.B. Watkins Elementary. This suggests the challenge isn't a lack of funding or staffing but rather attendance, instructional strategy, and targeted support for underperforming student groups. Chronic absenteeism runs 16.4% — the highest among nearby non-virtual schools. The school also shows uneven subgroup outcomes: White students perform near the state's middle percentile, while African American, Hispanic, and low-income students rank in the bottom quartile statewide, though all three groups have improved significantly over the past two years.

Reams Road Elementary school is a great school for students of various racial backgrounds. It has a very supportive staff and the adminstration stands behind their students. Reams has many fine qualities but it could improve on its support with extracurricular activities. Students are part of Reams on many different levels and the sports is the one area that Reams lacks support. Reams Elementary would be a 5 star school if the sports and the academic could find a way to share the victory and all that Reams has the potential to offer. Close Quote
