Summary

Camp Allen Elementary is a PK-5 school in Norfolk, VA, serving 405 students as part of Norfolk City Public Schools, a district currently ranked in the bottom 15% of Virginia districts. Nearly all of Camp Allen's students (99.75%) qualify for free/reduced lunch, yet the school has become one of the strongest elementary schools in its area, ranking 434th out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools (61st percentile, 3 stars) in 2025-2026 — a dramatic improvement from the 13th percentile in 2020-2021.

Camp Allen's academic performance far exceeds district averages and meets or beats state averages in most subjects. In 2025-2026, math proficiency ran from 76% to 82% across grades 3-5 (district: mid-to-high 50s), reading from 78% to 80% (district: high 50s to low 60s), and 5th grade science hit 74.5% (district: 52.2%). Among 11 nearby elementary schools, only Larchmont Elementary ranks higher, at the 74th percentile. The next closest is Sewells Point Elementary at the 46th percentile, with several other nearby schools landing in the single digits or teens.

Camp Allen also excels at attendance and serves all students well. Only 5.2% of students were chronically absent in 2024-2025, versus 17.9% for the district and 14.8% for the state. The school earns 4-star ratings for its low-income, African American, and Hispanic students, showing strong results across the entire student body. It does all this while spending a mid-range $9,607 per student. The main growth areas are 4th grade Virginia Studies, which trails the state average, and support for military-connected students, whose scores rank below the school's overall performance.

What people are saying

by a parent
Tuesday, March 19, 2013

I have had nothing but problems since the first day of the 2012-2013 school year. My daughter's teacher was very rude to her and was on the border of bullying her. The problem was so bad that the principal felt the need to move my daughter out the that classroom and a few weeks later the teacher was fired. After moving to a new class a group of five students began bullying my daughter verbally and physically. My daughter reports the bullying to her teacher but all the teacher does is tell the children to stop, but that only makes it worse because on the way back to their seat the students will walk by my daughters seat call her the "B" word and smack her in the back of the head. A little boy tried to lure my daughter into the bathroom and when she reported that to the gym teacher he did nothing and told her to go home and tell her mom. The bullying has gotten so bad and the school has done nothing for so long that I have contacted the police. If you can avoid it please refrain from sending your children to this school. Don't take the first no you hear do your best to send them to swells point if you can. Close Quote
