Summary

Centreville High is a public high school located in Clifton, Virginia, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 2,487. It is part of the Fairfax County Public Schools district, which is ranked 45th out of 129 school districts in Virginia and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Centreville High has shown strong performance in certain subject areas, particularly in Algebra I and Geometry, where its proficiency rates often exceed the district and state averages. However, the school struggles in some other subjects, such as Geometry, Chemistry, and Earth Science, where its proficiency rates are lower than the district and state averages. The school has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 91.9% to 95.0% over the past few years, which is comparable to the district and state averages. Nonetheless, Centreville High's dropout rate is slightly higher than the district and state averages, ranging from 3.8% to 5.4% in recent years.

Centreville High has experienced higher rates of chronic absenteeism compared to the district and state, with rates ranging from 12.8% to 19.3% in recent years. The school also has a significant population of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 32.01% to 32.48% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years, which is higher than the district average. This may contribute to some of the academic challenges the school faces. Centreville High is located in close proximity to several other high-performing schools, such as Woodson High and Robinson Secondary, which may create a competitive environment and raise expectations for Centreville High to improve its overall performance.
