We are excited and proud to announce that Porter has once again been ranked by US News & World Report…..

Porter is ranked #2 in Virginia Middle Schools AND #11 in Virginia Elementary Schools!

Great elementary and middle schools educate their students from all socioeconomic backgrounds with the goal of setting them up for success. In turn, students develop the core competencies in state curricula that best prepare them for high school.

State assessment data determines how most elementary and middle schools fare in these rankings.  The rankings use the same methodology for all included grade levels. For each state, schools were assessed on their students' performance on mathematics and reading/language arts state assessments. Half of the formula assessed the scores themselves (the “performance index”) and the other half incorporated the test results in the context of socioeconomic characteristics. In other words, the top-ranked schools are all high-achieving and have succeeded at educating all their students.
