Summary:

Zip code 24477 is home to one public high school, Stuarts Draft High, which serves grades 9 through 12 in the Stuarts Draft, Virginia area and is part of Augusta County Public Schools. Stuarts Draft High currently earns a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks 110th out of 331 Virginia high schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the 67th percentile statewide. It enrolls 668 students, has a student–teacher ratio of 14.3, and about 62% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school’s graduation rate stands at 94.6%, which is above the district’s 93.4% and the state’s 92.3%, while its dropout rate of 3.2% matches the district and is well below the 5.0% state average.

Stuarts Draft High shows several clear academic strengths. In 2025–2026, its 9th-grade Geometry proficiency was a perfect 100%, far exceeding the state average of 85.88%, and its 11th-grade English Reading proficiency reached 90.14%, also above state and district averages. Earth Science and 9th-grade Algebra I performance are similarly strong. The school has also improved its state ranking for three consecutive years, moving from 143rd in 2023–2024 to 110th in 2025–2026, despite the district overall being rated just 2 stars. This suggests Stuarts Draft High is a relative standout within its district and is on a steady upward trajectory.

The most significant concern is a large gap between 9th- and 10th-grade Algebra I proficiency. While 89.32% of 9th graders passed the Algebra I SOL, only 53.85% of 10th graders did so—a 35-percentage-point difference that points to a struggling subgroup or students retaking the course. Additionally, 12th-grade English Reading proficiency was 63.64% in 2024–2025, below district and state benchmarks, and chronic absenteeism is slightly above both at 15.1%. For parents, the takeaway is that Stuarts Draft High offers strong graduation outcomes and excellent instruction in several core subjects, but families should pay attention to math support for upperclassmen and efforts to improve attendance and 12th-grade literacy.
