Summary

Greenbriar East Elementary is a large PK–6 school in Fairfax, VA, serving 922 students as part of Fairfax County Public Schools. Over the past few years, the school has seen a notable decline in its state ranking, falling from the 58th percentile (3 stars) in 2022–23 to the 29th percentile (1 star) in 2025–26, placing it well below most neighboring schools in this high-performing area.

Within a 3-mile radius, most elementary schools rank in the 87th–99th percentile, while Greenbriar East sits at the 29th percentile. The contrast with Greenbriar West Elementary, located just 0.68 miles away, is especially striking: Greenbriar West ranks 145th in Virginia with roughly 87% math proficiency, while Greenbriar East ranks 794th with about 56% math proficiency. Fifth-grade math tells the story most clearly—only 44.8% of Greenbriar East students passed, compared with 86.1% at Greenbriar West and 94.4% at Navy Elementary. The school also serves a higher-need population, with 39% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, yet its per-pupil spending of $11,251 is below most nearby schools, including Brookfield Elementary's $14,547.

There are meaningful bright spots. Chronic absenteeism has improved dramatically, from 19.6% in 2022–23 to 12.8% in 2024–25, nearly matching the district average. Greenbriar East also posts strong state rankings for its African American students (70th–87th percentile), and 6th grade reading has been close to the district average in recent years. The school is not uniformly low-performing; rather, math instruction and support for economically disadvantaged and English language learners appear to be the highest-impact areas for improvement.
