Summary

Grace Miller Elementary is a PK-5 school in Bealeton, VA, serving 528 students in the Fauquier County Public Schools district. The school currently ranks in the 25th percentile statewide — 829th out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools — a sharp decline from its 70th-percentile performance in 2017-2018. About 47% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, chronic absenteeism sits at 14.1%, and the school operates with a 16:1 student-teacher ratio and per-pupil spending of $11,790.

On 2025-2026 state SOL tests, Grace Miller's proficiency rates trail district and state averages in most subjects. Third-grade reading stands at 50.7% proficient, compared with 67.4% for the district and 67.6% statewide — a gap that has persisted for four consecutive years. Fifth-grade science has declined to 46.8%, about 22 points below the state average. These results are well behind high-performing nearby schools like C. Hunter Ritchie Elementary (87th percentile) and Greenville Elementary (83rd percentile), where proficiency often reaches 80–95%. However, the closest schools — H.M. Pearson Elementary and Margaret M. Pierce Elementary — rank at similar levels.

Despite the challenges, there are notable bright spots. Fourth-grade reading proficiency reached 76.3%, above both district and state averages, and African American students performed in the 74th percentile statewide — a 4-star result. Outcomes vary widely by subgroup, though: female students rank in the 13th percentile while male students rank in the 50th. Meanwhile, Emerald Hill Elementary in Culpeper County Public Schools serves an even higher-poverty population yet ranks in the 65th percentile, showing that demographic challenges don't have to define outcomes. The most urgent priorities for Grace Miller are early literacy, science instruction, and reducing chronic absenteeism from its current 14.1% rate.
