Summary:
Zip code 24078 is home to just one middle school, Fieldale-Collinsville Middle, which serves students in grades 6 through 8 in Collinsville, Virginia, as part of Henry County Public Schools. With an enrollment of 792 students, the school has seen its state ranking decline steadily over the past three years, dropping from the 34th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 27th percentile in 2025–2026, when it earned a 1-star rating. The school also ranks in the 31st percentile among Virginia districts, with a 2-star district rating.
Fieldale-Collinsville Middle shows clear strengths in several areas. In 2025–2026, 8th grade Algebra I proficiency reached 96.88%, well above the state average of 93.26%. The school also outperformed both its district and the state in 7th grade math (54.8% vs. 51.11% state) and 7th grade civics (73.58% vs. 70.10% state). However, there are significant concerns. Eighth grade general math proficiency collapsed to just 28.48%, down from 49.59% the previous year and far below the state average of 46.86%. Reading proficiency trails the state in every grade, with the largest gap in 8th grade: 61.02% vs. 73.51% statewide.
The school faces considerable challenges related to its student population. Chronic absenteeism stands at 21.6%, meaning more than one in five students miss substantial school days, and the rate is well above the district's 18.8% and the state's 14.8%. The free/reduced lunch percentage is reported at 103.66%, signaling an extremely high-need population. Per-pupil spending is $8,474, and the student-teacher ratio is 17.3 to 1. On a positive note, 7th grade reading improved by 5.8 points and civics by 9.3 points year over year, suggesting that targeted strategies in 7th grade are working. The school should look to replicate those gains in 8th grade math and reading, and prioritize attendance improvements to reverse the downward ranking trend.
