Summary

Warren County High is a public high school located in Front Royal, Virginia, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 816 students. The school is part of the Warren County Public Schools district, which is ranked 83 out of 129 districts in Virginia and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Warren County High has consistently ranked in the top half of Virginia high schools, with strong academic performance on SOL (Standards of Learning) tests, particularly in subjects like Geometry, Algebra I, and English Reading. The school also maintains a high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 91.9% to 93.9% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, Warren County High has shown exceptional performance for its African American and Hispanic student populations, ranking 1st out of 249 Virginia high schools for its African American students in the 2023-2024 school year.

However, the school has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 15.7% to 31.7% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average. This may be a contributing factor to the lower performance of the school's White student population, which has struggled in recent years compared to other nearby schools, such as Millbrook High and Sherando High. Despite these challenges, Warren County High continues to be a relatively strong-performing high school within its district, with a focus on improving attendance and supporting all student populations.

What people are saying

by a student
Wednesday, October 24, 2012

Me being a 9th grader here is a roller coaster:

-the "wildcats" think that the whole county's theirs to have, thinking so egotistically of themselves; BELIEVING they own the WHOLE COUNTY.
-Sure, the teachers are actually good, but the principal... not so much. She's threatened us with school uniforms and "encouraging" us, if not putting down because she has not gotten in her head that the SOLs are noticeably harder than before, with half of the school who have taken Algebra I and II failed.
-The rules toward PDA are NOT ENFORCED. Close Quote
