Summary:
The 22834 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Linville-Edom Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 with 179 students. The school is part of the Rockingham County Public Schools district, which is ranked 91 out of 129 districts in Virginia and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Linville-Edom Elementary's test scores show a mixed performance compared to the district and state averages. While the school's 3rd grade math proficiency and 5th grade science proficiency are higher than the district and state, its 4th grade math proficiency is lower. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 15.7% and a relatively high percentage of students (39.11%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite these challenges, Linville-Edom Elementary appears to be well-resourced, with a high per-student spending of $11,507 and a low student-teacher ratio of 12:1. However, the mixed academic performance suggests that these resources may not be translating into consistently strong outcomes for students. Addressing the root causes of absenteeism and improving math instruction, particularly in the upper elementary grades, could be important areas of focus for the school and the district.
