Summary:
Zip code 23039 (Crozier, Virginia) is home to just one elementary school — Randolph Elementary — which serves grades PK through 5 as part of the highly regarded Goochland County Public Schools district (a 4-star district ranked 28th out of 131 in Virginia). Randolph Elementary consistently ranks in the top 15% of elementary schools statewide, earning a 4-star rating for three consecutive years and placing 153rd out of 1,111 Virginia elementary schools in 2025–2026 (86th percentile). With 387 students, a favorable 14:1 student-teacher ratio, and only 26.1% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the school enjoys a strong foundation for academic success.
Randolph Elementary outperforms both its district and the state across nearly every subject and grade level. In the most recent testing year, 3rd grade math proficiency reached 94.1% (compared to 74.0% statewide), 3rd grade reading hit 92.0% (vs. 67.6% statewide), and 5th grade science reached 88.7% (vs. 68.8% statewide). The school also exceeded its district average in all tested areas, with particularly large margins in 3rd grade math (+9.2 points), 3rd grade reading (+10.9 points), and 5th grade math (+9.2 points). The only soft spot is 4th grade Virginia Studies at 75.0%, which essentially ties the district average (74.9%) but still edges out the state (70.5%). Chronic absenteeism sits at 10.1%, slightly above the district's 9.6% but well below the statewide rate of 14.8%.
The most notable year-over-year change came in 3rd grade, where math proficiency jumped from 81.8% to 94.1% (+12.3 points) and reading rose from 76.4% to 92.0% (+15.6 points), suggesting a particularly strong cohort or successful early-grade interventions. However, several upper-grade scores softened slightly, including 5th grade math (87.5%, down from 91.2%), 5th grade science (88.7%, down from 91.4%), and 4th grade Virginia Studies (75.0%, down from 85.5%). While these declines are worth monitoring, Randolph Elementary remains a standout school with sustained high rankings, strong test results, and per-student spending of $10,374 — making it an excellent elementary option for families in the Crozier area.
