Our schools statewide rankings reflect poor test scores due to a high percentage of esl students who naturally struggle with English tests.
Our teachers and staff are wonderful, caring people. Our students are kind and hard-working and genuine.
I feel safe, heard, and comfortable in this close community. Close Quote

We love Virginia Run! Our kids have such great teachers and their test scores and report cards show it. They have made such close friends. There are a lot of activities for them to get involved with. They enjoy attending. Close Quote
