Summary

Warhill High is a public high school located in Williamsburg, Virginia, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,294 students. It is part of the Williamsburg-James City County Public Schools district, which is ranked 39 out of 129 school districts in Virginia and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Warhill High's performance has fluctuated over the past decade, with its statewide ranking ranging from 95th to 189th out of 321-328 Virginia high schools, and its SchoolDigger rating varying from 2 to 4 stars. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with Asian students tending to perform better, while African American and Hispanic students, as well as students from low socioeconomic backgrounds and those with disabilities, have lower rankings compared to other Virginia high schools. Warhill High's four-year graduation rate has generally been on par with or slightly above the state average, but its dropout rate has fluctuated between 0.8% and 5.3%, which is higher than the state's average.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Jamestown High and Lafayette High, Warhill High's performance is generally on par or slightly below. However, the school's performance is significantly better than the more distant Charles City County High, which is one of the lowest-performing high schools in the state. Warhill High's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio are on par with the district and state averages, but the school serves a relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, which may contribute to some of the academic challenges observed.
