State report card

Virginia rates schools two ways. Accreditation shows whether a school meets the state’s Standards of Accreditation; a fully accredited school “submitted all required evidence to the Department of Education as prescribed in the Standards of Accreditation,” the profile says. The School Performance and Support Framework gives each school a score and one of four performance levels: Distinguished, Meets Expectations, Approaching Expectations or Needs Intensive Support.

  • Accreditation: Fully Accredited for 2025-26.
  • Framework score: 67.19, performance level Needs Intensive Support, in the state’s division summary.

Standards of Learning pass rates (share of tested students who passed):

Subject 2023-24 2024-25 2025-26
Reading 47% 44% 45%
Math 29% 36% 31%
Science 50% 47% 44%
History and social science 65% 60% 57%

The full profile also reports attendance, student groups, teacher data and spending.

Attendance zone and feeder schools

Look up any address in the division’s Find My School map, or see the 2026-27 boundaries in its Redistricting Locator. Zones do not follow neighborhood or ZIP code lines, so check the address, not the area.

Feeder schools: we laid the division’s 2026-27 elementary, middle and high school boundary layers over the city’s 78,561 address points. These elementary zones make up the Norview Middle zone: Sherwood Forest Elementary (22%), Willard Elementary (20%), Coleman Place Elementary (14%), Ingleside Elementary (14%), Crossroads School (12%) and Tanners Creek Elementary (12%). Only part of some of those zones falls inside it.

High school: addresses in the zone are assigned to Norview High (40%), Booker T. Washington High (35%), Maury High (16%) and Granby High (5%). Middle and high school zones do not line up exactly, so classmates can split between high schools.
