Summary

Broadway High is a public high school in Broadway, Virginia, serving 932 students in grades 9–12 within Rockingham County Public Schools, and it recently earned its best statewide ranking in six years: 92nd out of 331 Virginia high schools, a 4-star rating. This is a big jump from 120th last year. Among Rockingham County’s four high schools, Broadway trails Spotswood High and Turner Ashby High but outranks East Rockingham High. It also beats every nearby out-of-district school, including Luray High, Page County High, Harrisonburg High, Stonewall Jackson High, and Rocktown High.

Broadway High excels at supporting students who often face extra barriers. Its low-income students rank 69th statewide, English learners rank 15th, and disabled students rank 44th – all in the top quarter or better. This is especially notable because 42.6% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, far lower than many nearby schools. The school’s 95.5% graduation rate and 3.1% dropout rate are better than district and state averages, and Broadway has the lowest dropout rate among county peers, including Spotswood High’s 5.4%. In STEM, proficiency is strong: 98% in Geometry, 92% in Algebra I, and 83% in Biology, all above state averages. Broadway High also invests heavily in staffing, with a 13.6:1 student-teacher ratio and $9,100 per-student spending – the highest in the county.

The biggest concerns are chronic absenteeism and reading gaps. Chronic absenteeism is 16.2%, above the district’s 11.0% and the state’s 14.8%, though it has fallen from 33% in 2021–2022. Reading results are uneven: 11th-grade reading is near state averages, but 12th-grade reading is just 54.55%, well below the district’s 71.67% and every county peer. This suggests some seniors need extra literacy support. Still, Broadway High is on a clear upward trend, with strong outcomes for underserved groups. Reducing absenteeism and improving upper-level reading could help the school rise even higher. For parents, Broadway High is a well-resourced, mid-sized school making steady gains in many areas.
