Summary:
The 22307 zip code area in Virginia is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Belle View Elementary and Bucknell Elementary) and 1 high school (West Potomac High) - all part of the Fairfax County Public Schools district.
West Potomac High stands out with a relatively large student population of 2,681 and a strong 92.8% four-year graduation rate, but its academic performance on standardized tests is generally lower than the county and state averages. In contrast, Belle View Elementary performs closer to the county and state averages on standardized tests, while Bucknell Elementary lags behind, particularly in Mathematics and English Reading. The schools also vary significantly in their percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 38.15% at Belle View Elementary to 64.52% at Bucknell Elementary, suggesting differing levels of economic disadvantage among the student populations.
The data reveals a disparity in academic performance between the high school and elementary schools, as well as between the two elementary schools. This may be related to the differences in per-student spending, which ranges from $10,661 at West Potomac High to $17,941 at Bucknell Elementary, and student-teacher ratios, which vary from 9.9 at Bucknell Elementary to 15.5 at West Potomac High. These resource allocation and staffing differences may contribute to the observed performance disparities among the schools in the 22307 zip code area.
