Top rankedAlbert Hill Middle344^th of 419 Virginia middle schools

Summary:

The 23221 zip code in Richmond, Virginia is home to a single middle school, Albert Hill Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. Based on the available data, Albert Hill Middle School is a low-performing institution, ranking 344 out of 419 middle schools in Virginia for the 2024-2025 school year and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school's academic performance is uneven, with strong results in Algebra I but weaker outcomes in Mathematics and English Reading. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, at 15.7% in the 2023-2024 school year. Despite the low performance, the school spends a relatively high amount per student ($20,460 in 2020-2021) compared to the state average. The school also serves a student population that is entirely eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage.

Overall, the data suggests that Richmond City Public Schools and the community may need to provide additional resources and support to address the challenges faced by Albert Hill Middle School and improve outcomes for its students.
