Understanding the 9/10 Rating
SchoolDistrictFinder rates Arlington County Public Schools 9 out of 10 — top-tier among Virginia public school districts. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in Virginia’s SOL (Standards of Learning) English Reading & Mathematics assessments (2024–25 school year). We average each district’s reading and math proficiency, then rank it against other districts in the same state to produce a 1–10 score. Because Virginia is compared only against itself, the rating reflects how this district performs relative to its in-state peers.
Arlington County Public Schools ranks among the highest-performing public school districts in Virginia on state assessments, with reading and math proficiency rates in roughly the top 10–20% statewide. Homes in and around zip code 22207 often carry a measurable premium relative to neighboring areas served by lower-rated districts.
