Summary:

Zip code 22572, serving the Warsaw, VA area, is home to just 2 public schools within the Richmond County Public Schools district — Richmond County Elementary (PK–7) and Rappahannock High (8–12) — meaning there is no standalone middle school and students transition to high school in 8th grade.

Both schools serve a predominantly low-income population, with more than 85% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, yet they achieve several impressive outcomes. Richmond County Elementary has improved its state ranking from the 28th to the 42nd percentile over three years, with standout math results: 5th-grade math proficiency is 82.18% vs. 72.39% statewide, 7th-grade math is 71.19% vs. 51.11%, and 7th-grade Algebra I students reach 100% proficiency. Its chronic absenteeism rate is just 8.5%, well below the 14.8% state average. Rappahannock High shines in graduation outcomes, graduating 98.3% of students versus 92.3% statewide, with a dropout rate of only 1.6%. It also excels in advanced math (100% proficiency in 8th-grade Geometry and 9th-grade Algebra II) and biology (78.49% vs. 68.86% statewide).

The biggest weaknesses are 4th-grade Virginia Studies at the elementary school (53.21% proficient vs. 70.52% statewide), and general 8th-grade math (30.65%) and science (56.6%) at the high school, which lag far behind state averages despite the success of advanced-track students. The high school's chronic absenteeism rate of 13.4% is below the state average but above the district's 10.5%, and is worth monitoring. Overall, these two schools form a complete PK–12 pathway that performs at or above the middle of Virginia rankings while serving a high-poverty population — a meaningful accomplishment for families considering this area.
