Summary

Rockledge Elementary is a mid-sized school in Woodbridge, VA, serving 495 students in grades PK–5 within Prince William County Public Schools. In 2025–2026, it ranked 611th out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools, placing it in the 45th percentile — a solidly mid-pack performance that sits below many of its immediate neighbors.

Rockledge’s most defining pattern is a clear academic drop-off between 3rd and 5th grade. In 2025–2026 math, 3rd graders posted an 81.63% proficiency rate, slightly above the district average, but by 4th grade that fell to 65.85% and by 5th grade to 63.38% — roughly 15 points behind the district. Reading follows a similar, if less extreme, trend. This is not a one-year fluke; 4th grade math has lagged the district by double digits for several consecutive years. Meanwhile, 5th grade science proficiency (63.89%) also trails the district by more than eight points. The school’s overall ranking places it below six nearby schools, including Old Bridge Elementary (81st percentile) and Antietam Elementary (72nd percentile), but above four others like Marumsco Hills Elementary (11th percentile) and R. Dean Kilby Elementary (20th percentile).

Poverty is high — 69.49% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch — but several nearby schools with nearly identical poverty rates, such as Springwoods Elementary and Lake Ridge Elementary, rank 20–25 percentile points higher. Chronic absenteeism (13.7%) is another differentiator, closer to the district average but well above the 8–10% rates at higher-performing peers. Notably, Rockledge has declined from an 81st-percentile ranking in 2020–2021, and while subgroup results vary, the school has shown a consistent strength with African American students, who ranked at the 86th percentile statewide in 2025–2026.
