Promotion and Retention Policies

This policy makes sure schools are being fair and doing everything they can to help each student move up to the next grade. If they don’t follow these rules, they may lose their accreditation. For example, this could happen if they don’t give all the required tests or fail to support students who need extra help. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B. 1

Graduation Requirements

Schools must offer all the classes and programs students need to earn a diploma. This includes regular, honors, or advanced courses, either in person or online. Career and technical programs must be available too. Schools should also give students chances to build job skills, earn special diploma seals, or finish credits in summer school. If a school doesn’t offer enough of these options, it may lose full accreditation. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B. 2

Instructional Program

Schools must teach all core subjects—like reading, math, science, and history—based on the state’s Standards of Learning (SOLs). SOLs are the learning expectations of what students should know and be able to do in each subject and grade. Schools are also expected to give students opportunities to explore and prepare for careers, take advanced classes that prepare them for college-level work, and participate in work experiences. Lessons should help students think clearly and work well with others, and should be taught in ways that meet students’ needs. If a school doesn’t offer a strong and fair learning program that includes these things, it may lose full accreditation. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B. 3-4

Leadership and Staffing Requirements

Schools need strong leaders and enough qualified staff to support learning for all students. This means principals must help teachers do their best by providing support. They also create a safe and positive school environment and work with families. Teachers must be properly trained, meet state expectations, and help all students learn. Schools also must have counselors, support staff, and planning time for teachers. If a school doesn’t have all required staff or isn’t fully supporting teachers and families, it could lose full accreditation. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B. 5

Facilities and Safety Provisions

Schools must be clean, safe, and up to code. This means having classrooms, labs, libraries, and nursing areas that are usable and big enough for students and staff. Schools also must be prepared for emergencies with first aid and plans for drills. Some staff must be CPR-certified and able to help with common medical emergencies, like allergic reactions. If a school doesn’t follow these safety expectations, they might lose accreditation. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B. 6

Parental Notification

Each year, schools must tell families what their child will learn, when they’ll take state tests like the Standards of Learning assessments, and what is needed to move up a grade. Schools also have to share a school performance report, that, similar to a student report card, shows how the school is doing. This includes information like test scores, student enrollment, and teacher quality. If a school doesn’t share this information, it can lose full accreditation. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B. 7

Standards of Learning

Schools are required to teach the Standards of Learning (SOLs), which are the learning expectations of what students should know and be able to do in each subject based on their grade level. If a school doesn’t teach all of the standards for each grade and subject, they may lose their accreditation. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B. 8

Long-Range Comprehensive Plan

Every year, school divisions and schools have to identify the steps they need to take to give every student a quality education and publish their plans on the division and school websites. Schools that are identified for additional state support work with the school division, teachers, and parents to make a multi-year plan to boost student learning and school quality. The school, division, and VDOE regularly review these plans to make sure the schools are improving and getting the support they need. Schools that do not create and follow these plans may lose their accreditation. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B. 9

Federally Identified Schools

Schools that are identified for Comprehensive Support must work with VDOE and their division to create and follow their improvement plan. Every year, the schools identified for any type of support must report what they have done to the division and VDOE. Schools have three years to improve student learning or receive more support from VDOE. Schools that the state identifies for Targeted Support or Additional Targeted Support must work with the school division, teachers, and parents to create and follow a multi-year plan to boost student learning, including identifying the school’s needs and available resources, and deciding how the division and school will work together to get those resources. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B.10

Compliance

Actions taken to correct any noncompliance issues that the school reported in the previous year. For further detail, please see the associated code 8VAC20-132-300 B.11

Assessments

Fall Membership by Student Group

Fall Membership By Student Group:

The Virginia Department of Education annually collects statistics on the number of students enrolled in public schools on September 30.  Student counts are reported by grade assignment, race, ethnicity, disability, English proficiency, and economic status. The collection of race and ethnicity information as specified by the U.S. Department of Education is required for eligibility for federal education funds and for accountability reports. A student is reported as economically disadvantaged if he or she meets any one of the following criteria:
  • Is eligible for Free/Reduced Meals;
  • Receives Temporary Assistance for Needy Families;
  • Is eligible for Medicaid; or
  • Is a migrant or is experiencing homelessness.

Chronic Absenteeism

Chronic Absenteeism 2025-2026 School Year:

Daily attendance is critical to success in school. A student is considered chronically absent if he or she misses two or more instructional days per month (18 days, or 10 percent of a 180-day school year) regardless of whether the absences are excused or unexcused. According to the U.S. Department of Education:
  • Children who are chronically absent in preschool, kindergarten, and first grade are much less likely to read on grade level by the third grade.
  • Students who can't read at grade level by the third grade are four times more likely to drop out of high school.
  • By high school, regular attendance is a better dropout indicator than test scores.
  • A student who is chronically absent in any year between the eighth and twelfth grade is seven times more likely to drop out of school.

Free and Reduced Meal Eligibility

Free and Reduced Meal Eligibility:

School divisions that choose to take part in the National School Lunch Program get cash subsidies and donated commodities from the U.S. Department of Agriculture for each meal they serve. In return, they must serve lunches that meet Federal requirements, and they must offer free or reduced-price lunches to eligible children. The School Breakfast Program operates by supporting breakfasts in the same manner as the National School Lunch Program.   At the beginning of each school year, letters and meal applications are distributed to households of children attending school. This letter informs households that school nutrition programs are available and that free and reduced-price meals are available based on income criteria. Applications have been eliminated totally in divisions that implement the community eligibility provision for all schools within the division. Children from families with incomes at or below 130 percent of the poverty level are eligible for free meals. Those between 130 percent and 185 percent of the poverty level are eligible for reduced-price meals, for which students can be charged no more than 40 cents for lunch and 30 cents for breakfast. All other students pay the full price for meals. See the Virginia Department of Education website for more information about school nutrition programs.

Free and Reduced Breakfast Participation of Eligible Students

Free and Reduced Breakfast Participation of Eligible Students :

The above pie graph displays the average daily percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price meals who participated in the U.S. Department of Agriculture School Breakfast Program. The School Breakfast Program is a federally assisted meal program that provides nutritious breakfast meals to students. The Virginia Department of Education administers the program at the state level and school divisions administer the program at the local level. Participation in the School Breakfast Program has been linked increased achievement, reduced absenteeism and tardiness, fewer disciplinary problems, and better student health. Breakfast menus must provide one-fourth of the daily recommended levels for protein, calcium, iron, Vitamin A, Vitamin C and calories. Participating schools must serve breakfasts that meet Federal nutrition standards – one quarter of daily recommended levels of protein, calcium, iron, vitamins A and C and calories – and must provide free and reduced-price breakfasts to eligible children. The No Kid Hungry Virginia campaign and the Virginia 365 Project are key state initiatives to increase participation in school nutrition programs and eliminate childhood hunger.

The Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 requires annual testing in reading in grades 3-8 and once during high school. Virginia’s ESSA implementation plan expects that by the 2023-2024 school year, at least 75 percent of all students, and of all students in the student groups listed in this table, will be able to demonstrate grade-level proficiency by passing state reading tests. Annual targets for student groups reflect improvement upon base-line performance from the 2015-2016 school year. Student groups meeting or exceeding annual or long-term targets must improve performance as compared to the previous year. Note: Reading pass rates reported for high schools reflect the performance of a 12th-grade class of students who entered the ninth grade at the same time. More information about ESSA implementation in Virginia is available on the Virginia Department of Education website. Detailed state assessment results — including results by test type and student groups — are available on VDOE’s Test Results Build-A-Table data tool.

The Every Student Succeeds Act of 2015 requires annual testing in mathematics in grades 3-8 and once during high school. Virginia’s ESSA implementation plan expects that by the 2023-2024 school year, at least 70 percent of all students, and of all students in the student groups listed in this table, will be able to demonstrate grade-level proficiency by passing state mathematics tests. Annual targets for student groups reflect improvement upon base-line performance during the 2015-2016 school year. Student groups meeting or exceeding annual or long-term targets must improve performance compared to the previous year. Mathematics pass rates reported for high schools reflect the performance of a 12th-grade class of students who entered the ninth grade at the same time. Note: Under Virginia’s approved mathematics waiver from the U.S. Department of Education, students who are enrolled in advanced mathematics courses take the state mathematics test for the course in which they are enrolled. For more information about the mathematics waiver, see “ESSA Mathematics Waiver” in the Glossary. More information about ESSA implementation in Virginia is available on the Virginia Department of Education website. Detailed state assessment results — including results by test type and student groups — are available on VDOE’s Test Results Build-A-Table data tool.
