However, the school struggles in on-grade-level math, with only 40.35% of 7th graders and 52.41% of 6th graders proficient, both well below state averages. Reading scores are stable but hover 5-8 points behind the state across all grades, while science (59.26%) and civics (68.38%) also trail Virginia averages. The one bright spot beyond advanced math is 8th grade math, where the school's 51.72% proficiency actually exceeds both the district (44.50%) and state (46.86%).
Overall, Robert E.

Notably, the school performs slightly above its district overall (66.4% average SOL proficiency versus 65.4% for Frederick County Public Schools), but the district itself ranks in the lower half of Virginia (104th of 131 districts). For parents, this school offers a strong advanced math track and solid attendance, but families should be aware that average proficiency across all SOL subjects (66.4%) lags the state average (71.1%), particularly in standard math and reading.
