Summary

Rolling Valley Elementary is a PK-6 school in Springfield, Virginia, serving 521 students as part of Fairfax County Public Schools, a highly regarded district ranked in the top 30% of Virginia school divisions.

The school has earned a consistent 3-star rating, ranking in the 61st percentile of Virginia elementary schools for the 2025-26 school year. For parents, that means Rolling Valley offers a solid, dependable education that is comfortably above state averages. The school's biggest academic strengths are early reading and 6th grade math. In 3rd grade reading, for example, 84% of students scored proficient — well above the district average of 72% and the state average of 68%. Similarly, 6th grade math scores have run roughly 8 to 19 points ahead of the district over the past three years. The area of greatest concern is 5th grade, where both math and science lag district and state averages. In 2025-26, only 56% of 5th graders passed math, compared to 73% statewide. Reading proficiency also narrows by 6th grade, suggesting that while early literacy intervention is effective, older students may need additional support.

Rolling Valley sits in a neighborhood of unusually high-performing Fairfax County elementary schools. Within a mile or two, West Springfield Elementary and Hunt Valley Elementary both rank in the 87th percentile — well above Rolling Valley's 61st percentile. The school also trails Keene Mill Elementary, Orange Hunt Elementary, and Ravensworth Elementary, though it outperforms nearby Garfield Elementary and Crestwood Elementary by significant margins. Attendance is solid, with a 9.4% chronic absenteeism rate that beats both district and state averages. The school also spends more per student ($13,412) than most of its higher-performing neighbors, which suggests the resources are there — the challenge is translating that investment into stronger math and science outcomes in the upper grades.
