Summary:
The 23847 zip code in Virginia is home to a single middle school, Edward W. Wyatt Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Greensville County Public Schools district, which is ranked 99 out of 129 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Edward W. Wyatt Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Virginia middle schools over the past three years, with test scores below the state averages across subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 8th-grade math proficiency was 34.15% compared to the state average of 50.48%, and 6th-grade reading proficiency was 64.44% compared to the state average of 72.46%. The school also has a very high free/reduced lunch rate of over 101%, indicating significant economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite the higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio, the school is not seeing commensurate academic performance, suggesting that other factors may be at play. The school's performance relative to the district and state averages indicates a need for further investigation and potential interventions to support student achievement. Additional context and data, such as trends over time, teacher qualifications, and other school climate/culture metrics, would be helpful to better understand the challenges facing this school and identify opportunities for improvement.
