Summary

Green Valley Elementary is a public elementary school in Roanoke, Virginia, serving 493 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Roanoke County Public Schools district, which is ranked 10th out of 129 districts in the state.

Green Valley Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Virginia, with students performing exceptionally well on SOL (Standards of Learning) assessments, often exceeding the scores of the Roanoke County Public Schools district and the state of Virginia as a whole. The school's performance in Mathematics and English Reading is particularly impressive, with proficiency rates significantly higher than the district and state averages. Green Valley Elementary also excels in supporting the academic achievement of various student subgroups, including female students, male students, Hispanic students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

While Green Valley Elementary outperforms the nearby Oak Grove Elementary and Clearbrook Elementary schools in academic achievement, its performance lags behind that of the higher-ranked Cave Spring Elementary and Penn Forest Elementary schools, which are also part of the Roanoke County Public Schools district. Additionally, the school has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism rates in recent years, which is an area that warrants further attention and intervention to ensure continued academic success for all students.
