Summary:

Zip code 22207 in Arlington, VA is served by two public middle schools—Dorothy Hamm Middle and Williamsburg Middle—both covering grades 6-8 as part of Arlington County Public Schools, a district ranked 26th out of 131 in Virginia.

Williamsburg Middle is the clear academic standout in this area, ranking #5 in Virginia for both the 2024–2025 and 2025–2026 school years (top 1% statewide). Dorothy Hamm Middle is also a strong school, but it sits at #38-#41 statewide (top 10%). On nearly every SOL test, Williamsburg outperforms Dorothy Hamm by 10 to 25 percentage points. For example, in 2025–2026, 6th grade math proficiency was 97.06% at Williamsburg versus 70.89% at Dorothy Hamm; 8th grade reading was 96.68% versus 85.64%. Both schools excel in advanced math, with near-universal proficiency in Algebra I and Geometry—Dorothy Hamm even posts 100% in all advanced math tests. This suggests both schools successfully support accelerated learners, even while regular math scores differ significantly.

Demographic differences may help explain part of the gap. Dorothy Hamm has a free/reduced lunch rate of 18.91%, compared to just 2.8% at Williamsburg, and chronic absenteeism is 10.0% versus 5.8%—both schools are below district (12.1%) and state (14.8%) averages. Spending is nearly identical ($13,436 vs. $13,381 per student), and Williamsburg actually has a slightly higher student-teacher ratio (15.1 vs. 14.2). Despite similar resources, Williamsburg’s outcomes are exceptional. For families weighing options in zip 22207, both schools are above district and state averages on nearly every measure, making either a strong choice—but Williamsburg Middle stands out as one of the top middle schools in Virginia.
