Summary

Jordan Springs Elementary is a PK–5 school in Stephenson, VA, serving 668 students—the largest elementary school in its immediate area—and is part of Frederick County Public Schools. The school currently ranks in the 35th percentile statewide (2 stars) for the 2025–26 school year, which is stronger than its district's overall standing but below the Virginia median. About 39.5% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, a lower poverty rate than most nearby Frederick County elementaries.

There are clear bright spots and some concerns. Jordan Springs' 3rd graders exceeded state averages in both reading and math in 2025–26, suggesting strong early-elementary instruction. However, only 59.6% of 4th graders were proficient in math—the lowest 4th-grade math score among all 11 nearby elementary schools, even those with much higher poverty rates. Chronic absenteeism has also jumped from 6.3% in 2022–23 to 17.3% in 2024–25, above both district and state averages, and this likely connects to the school's declining academic rankings. Since peaking at the 63rd percentile in 2022–23, the school has dropped for three consecutive years.

Comparisons to similar schools highlight room for improvement. D.G. Cooley Elementary, a school with a similar poverty rate in the higher-performing Clarke County Public Schools district, beat Jordan Springs in every comparable subject, often by significant margins. Meanwhile, Greenwood Mill Elementary, with nearly identical poverty rates, has overtaken Jordan Springs in state ranking. The school's challenges do not appear to be driven by poverty alone, and the most pressing concerns are the rise in absenteeism, the 4th-grade math gap, and declining outcomes for low-income and female students. Addressing these would likely have the biggest impact on reversing the school's downward trend.
