Summary

Old Bridge Elementary is a PK–5 school in Woodbridge, VA, serving 505 students in the Prince William County Public Schools district, and it ranks #214 out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools with a 4-star rating for the 2025–2026 school year, placing it in the 81st percentile statewide. Over the past decade, the school has consistently been one of the top elementary schools in the state, earning 4- or 5-star ratings in nearly every year. Its test scores exceed both district and state averages in every subject and grade level, often by 15–20 percentage points in reading and math.

The school's success is supported by strong attendance and a distinct economic profile. Chronic absenteeism at Old Bridge was 8.7% in 2024–2025, well below the district rate of 13.8% and the state rate of 14.8%. About 39.2% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, a much lower poverty rate than neighboring schools such as Elizabeth Vaughan Elementary, Occoquan Elementary, and Westridge Elementary, where the rate is roughly 70%. In 2025–2026, 89.2% of 3rd graders were proficient in reading (versus 67.6% statewide), and 90.4% of 5th graders were proficient in math (versus 72.4% statewide).

The contrast with Elizabeth Vaughan Elementary, just 2.5 miles away, is striking: the two schools spend nearly identical amounts per student, yet Old Bridge far outperforms its neighbor, which ranks in the 23rd percentile. Westridge Elementary is Old Bridge's closest true peer, matching or beating it in some subjects while serving a much higher-poverty student body. Old Bridge serves several student groups especially well, including military-connected families, though support for low-income and disabled students has been more uneven. With standout 5th grade math scores—consistently above 84% proficiency—and a slight recent dip in statewide rank, Old Bridge remains one of the strongest elementary options in the Woodbridge area.

It’s a fine school… if your kid is neurotypical, no behavior concerns, and never needs extra attention. If you have an IEP, or concerns, or a child with extra energy, be ready to fight just to see your kids make mediocre progress, while the school claims they have done an amazing job. The teachers are not collaborative and seem perturbed when a student needs anything extra. The staff is complacent in undeserving students, while claiming they are making progress and blowing off parent concerns. We’ve been in several elementaries and this was the worst experience by far.
