Summary

Mosaic Elementary is a PK-6 school in Fairfax County Public Schools serving about 927 students in the Vienna/Oakton area of Fairfax, VA. The school currently ranks 148th out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools (87th percentile) with a 4-star rating, placing it comfortably above district and state averages in nearly every tested subject. It serves a moderately diverse, middle-income population, with about 27% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch.

Academically, Mosaic is consistently strong across all grade levels and subjects. Math proficiency ranges from 82% to 92% across grades 3-6, while reading proficiency sits between 86% and 91% — both well above FCPS and Virginia averages. The school's biggest standout is 6th-grade math, where proficiency runs roughly 21 points above the district average. Mosaic also serves several student groups exceptionally well: African American students rank at the 91st percentile statewide, multi-racial students at the 95th percentile, and English Language Learners at the 81st percentile. Science is the relative weak spot — 5th-grade science proficiency is only about 4 points above the district, and well below nearby high performers like Oakton Elementary (93%) and Mantua Elementary (95%).

Compared with nearby schools, Mosaic sits in the middle of the pack — ahead of schools like Fairhill Elementary and Providence Elementary, but below the elite cluster of Flint Hill Elementary, Oakton, Mantua, and Vienna Elementary. Mosaic is notably efficient: at about $10,182 per student, it spends less than every nearby comparison school while still delivering above-average results. Its chronic absenteeism rate of 10.4% is better than the district and state averages, but higher than most local peers. The school was once ranked in the 99th percentile (2018-19) and has since settled into the high-80s — still a very solid choice. Key opportunities for improvement include boosting science scores, reducing absenteeism, and lifting outcomes for Hispanic and low-income students to match the school's strong results for other groups.

Open Quote Mosby Woods Elementary School is GREAT. I have 2 children there. The school has excellent teachers and administrators. I have been consistently impressed with the school for seven years. When issues or problems have come up, which they have, each has been handled to my satisfaction. The communication with my children's teachers is excellent. They are always available and helpful. I am thrilled that my children go to Mosby Woods and I am very proud to be a part of the school. Close Quote
