Summary

Randolph Elementary is a PK–5 public school in Crozier, Virginia, serving 387 students as part of Goochland County Public Schools, and it has become one of central Virginia's standout elementary schools with a 2025–2026 state rank of 153 out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools (86th percentile, 4 stars). Over the past decade, the school has transformed from a mid-pack performer (49th percentile in 2018–2019) into a consistently high-achieving school, earning 4 stars in five of the last six reported years.

Academically, Randolph exceeds district and state proficiency rates in nearly every subject. In 2025–2026, 3rd grade math proficiency was 94.1% (vs. 84.95% district and 74.04% state), 3rd grade reading was 92% (vs. 81.08% district and 67.61% state), and 5th grade science was 88.7% (vs. 83.52% district and 68.75% state). The school also posts strong results across student subgroups: female students rank in the 85th percentile statewide, male students in the 86th, and low-income students improved from the 49th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 71st percentile in 2025–2026. Chronic absenteeism sits at 10.1%, well below the state average of 14.8%, and the student-teacher ratio is a favorable 14:1.

Comparisons to nearby schools highlight Randolph's effectiveness. It outperforms Goochland Elementary (same district, similar demographics) by a wide margin—94.1% vs. 80.4% in 3rd grade math—while spending about $3,000 less per student. Randolph also holds its own against elite schools in Henrico County Public Schools like Gayton Elementary, Nuckols Farm Elementary, and Kaechele Elementary, achieving comparable proficiency while serving a more economically diverse population. Against South Anna Elementary in Hanover County, Randolph leads in nearly every subject despite similar poverty levels. The clearest area to watch is 4th grade, where VA Studies dipped to 75% in 2025–2026, but overall this is a high-performing, cost-effective school with a strong upward trajectory.
