Summary

Woolwine Elementary is a small, rural PK-7 school in Woolwine, Virginia, serving 153 students in Patrick County Public Schools. Despite more than three-quarters of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school ranks 84th out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools — placing it in the 92nd percentile with a 5-star rating. That puts it well ahead of nearby schools like Stuart Elementary (313th), Indian Valley Elementary (357th), and Meadows of Dan Elementary (482nd).

Academically, Woolwine students exceeded both district and state averages on every single SOL test in 2025-2026, with an average proficiency of about 91% compared to 79% for the district and 69% statewide. Highlights include 100% proficiency in 5th-grade math and 4th-grade Virginia Studies, plus 95% proficiency in 7th-grade math — a striking contrast to the 51.1% state average. The school's work with students from lower-income families is particularly noteworthy: its Low Socioeconomic Status subgroup ranks 13th of 1,040 schools statewide, placing it in the 99th percentile. Female students rank 10th of 1,100 schools, and recent male subgroup rankings were in the 96th percentile.

Attendance and school climate are also strong. Chronic absenteeism sits at just 9.7%, well below the state rate of 14.8%, and the student-teacher ratio of 13.9 keeps class sizes reasonable. Woolwine has been steadily climbing in recent years — from the 78th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 92nd percentile today — and has never fallen below the 65th percentile in the past decade. For parents considering schools in the region, Woolwine stands out as a high-poverty, high-performing school that demonstrates small rural schools can achieve excellent outcomes.
