Summary

Victory Elementary is a PK–5 elementary school in Bristow, VA, serving 661 students as part of Prince William County Public Schools. The school holds a 4-star rating, ranking 295th out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools, which places it in the 73rd percentile statewide. Victory has earned 4-star ratings consistently since the 2021–2022 school year, with percentile rankings between the 72nd and 81st statewide — a strong improvement from earlier years when it held 3-star ratings in the 50s and 60s percentile range.

On every SOL test reported for 2025–2026, Victory outperformed both its district and the state. For example, 3rd grade math proficiency was 91.25% versus 74.04% statewide, and 3rd grade reading was 78.75% versus 67.61% statewide. Several nearby schools rank higher, including Piney Branch Elementary (89th percentile), T. Clay Wood Elementary (88th), Cedar Point Elementary (88th), and Bristow Run Elementary (82nd). What makes Victory stand out is that it achieves its results while serving a population with a 69.74% free/reduced-price lunch rate — much closer to lower-performing nearby schools like Suella G. Ellis Elementary (15th percentile) or George P. Mullen Elementary (29th percentile). Victory also posts a low chronic absenteeism rate of 9.2% versus 13.8% for the district, and spends a relatively efficient $10,517 per student — less than many neighbors with weaker results.

One of Victory's signature strengths is its support for English language learners, whose statewide subgroup ranking has stayed at the 85th percentile or higher for three consecutive years. The school has undergone a major demographic shift, however: free/reduced-price lunch eligibility jumped from about 35% in 2023–2024 to nearly 70% in 2024–2025. Over that same period, the low-income subgroup ranking dropped from the 80th percentile to the 38th percentile — the clearest area to watch. Still, the school's overall academic results remain above district and state averages in every subject, showing resilience even as its student population changes.

In 2015-2016 the average classroom size is 20-23 students. The Parent / Teacher Organization works cohesively with a strong emphasis on the student's enjoyment of learning and in having fun. The PTA is very active, and organizes many successful events and community-service programs. The school administrators are professional, courteous and do well maintaining a clean school, a no bully policy and a safe/fun learning environment. On average, teachers care for students and teach progressive lessons. Office personnel keep a clean and organize front office. A re-alignment of school boundaries during the summer of 2015 bus students in from lower-income families living in Manassas, VA that account for increased financial assistance programs and increased volunteer/financial support by the parents of the 20136 zip code area. Future test results, personnel turn-over, and/or ongoing parent evaluations will determine if the school is affected by the re-zoning. Close Quote

The school is to interested in behaviorial issues to focus on advanced education. The principals, Mrs. Gross especially, have created an environment of fear and retaliation at the school. Children are verbally rewarded with great praise for telling on other children there. It has become so prevalent and hurtful an environment that children make up lies of what other children have done just to see them get punished. It is a horrible environment. Unfortunately the principals have taught my children to become accomplished liars to stay out of trouble, no more than that. Horrible administration and mean and vindictive teachers are at this school in my opinion. I personally think this is child abuse plain and simple but completely legal. Disgusting. Close Quote
