SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 1,111 Virginia Elementary Schools

Better than 14% of Virginia elementary schools

Summary

Chesterfield Virtual School is a K-8 virtual school in Chesterfield, VA, serving 440 students as part of Chesterfield County Public Schools. The school holds a 1-star rating and ranks in the 14th percentile of Virginia elementary/middle schools. It spends more per student ($12,303) than every nearby brick-and-mortar school, which range from roughly $8,400 to $9,400, and maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 9.9. Chronic absenteeism is a serious challenge at 20.0%, exceeding the district (16.1%) and state (14.8%) averages, and is comparable only to nearby J.A. Chalkley Elementary among neighboring schools.

Academically, CVS presents a two-sided profile. Reading is a relative strength, with scores in several grades near or above district averages — for example, 3rd grade reading reaches 66.7%, matching the district's 66.2%. Math is a deeper concern. Proficiency rates fall from 39.4% in 4th grade to 43.2% in 5th, then drop sharply to 19.7% in 7th and 23.3% in 8th grade, well below district and state averages. Nearby Greenfield Elementary, by contrast, posts math proficiency of 88.4% in 4th grade and 84.4% in 5th. CVS students in advanced 8th grade courses fare much better, with Algebra I at 71.9% and Earth Science at 84.6% proficiency, suggesting accelerated learners are well served while students in standard courses struggle.

CVS also shows significant variation across student groups. African American students have climbed to the 55th percentile statewide, while white students rank near the bottom at the 2nd percentile; female students (27th percentile) outperform male students (12th percentile). The school's overall ranking has been volatile, improving from 0 stars in 2022-2023 to 1 star, then slipping from the 24th to 14th percentile, with small cohorts driving large year-to-year swings. Given its above-average spending and low student-teacher ratio, CVS results raise questions about the virtual model's cost-effectiveness relative to in-person instruction at nearby schools like A.M. Davis Elementary, which spends less yet outperforms CVS in math.
