Summary

Sanders Corner Elementary is a PK–5 school in Ashburn, Virginia, serving 503 students as part of Loudoun County Public Schools. The school earned a 4-star rating for 2025–2026, ranking 243rd out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools (78th percentile). Its performance has been stable over recent years, hovering between the 74th and 82nd percentiles since 2021. The school spends a generous $18,518 per student and maintains a favorable 12.7 student-teacher ratio.

Where Sanders Corner Elementary truly shines is in the early grades. Third-grade math proficiency (93.6%) and reading proficiency (90.0%) both substantially exceed district averages, and the school outperforms most nearby schools at this grade level. The school also provides exceptional support for English learners, ranking 17th out of 315 Virginia elementary schools for this subgroup. Chronic absenteeism has consistently been lower than district and state averages, providing a solid foundation for learning. In the wider Ashburn cluster, Sanders Corner ranks 5th out of 11 nearby elementary schools—clearly ahead of Dominion Trail Elementary and Discovery Elementary, which it outperforms by wide margins in nearly every subject.

The main concern is a noticeable slide by 5th grade. Math proficiency drops to 75.6%, which falls below the district average and well behind top neighbors like Mill Run Elementary (97.4%) and Waxpool Elementary (92.4%). Reading in 5th grade (81.8%) also trails those schools by roughly 15 points, though some of this gap may reflect differences in student demographics, since Sanders Corner serves a higher share of low-income students (26%) than either Mill Run (10.5%) or Waxpool (16.7%). Subgroup performance is somewhat uneven—female students rank in the 88th percentile statewide, while male students sit in the 66th percentile, and Hispanic student rankings dropped sharply in the most recent year after several strong performances. Families considering Sanders Corner will find a solid, dependable school with excellent early-grade instruction and strong English learner support, but should be aware of the upper-grade math trend.
