Summary

Linville-Edom Elementary is a small PK-5 school in Linville, VA, serving 209 students as part of Rockingham County Public Schools. The school's statewide ranking has declined considerably in recent years, falling from the 66th percentile in 2018-2019 to the 27th percentile in 2025-2026, placing it in the bottom third of Virginia elementary schools.

Academically, the school presents a mixed picture. Early-grade reading and math scores are close to district expectations, and 5th-grade reading proficiency (75%) is above both the district (69.1%) and state (72.4%) averages. However, 5th-grade math (46.9%) and science (59.4%) lag well behind district and state levels, highlighting upper-elementary STEM as a key concern. Among same-district peers, Linville-Edom's 5th-grade math proficiency is the lowest, compared with Plains Elementary at 84.9% and John C. Myers Elementary at 82.4%. Subgroup effectiveness is uneven as well: male students rank at the 53rd percentile statewide for their subgroup, while female and White students sit at the 22nd and 10th percentiles, respectively.

Despite the academic challenges, the school has genuine strengths. Chronic absenteeism is just 7.8%, about half the state rate of 14.8% and well below the district's 11.0%. Per-student spending of $10,895 and a 14.1 student-teacher ratio are in line with peer schools, suggesting resources aren't the issue. Free/reduced lunch eligibility jumped to 63.2% in 2024-2025, indicating the school is serving a more economically diverse population than in previous years. With its small enrollment, Linville-Edom can offer a close-knit, personal environment, but it also means a single grade-level cohort can dramatically shift the data from year to year. The school's solid attendance and reading results provide a strong foundation, but closing the upper-elementary math and science gap will be essential to reversing the decline.
