LURAY, Oct. 7 — Page County Public Schools (PCPS) celebrates significant growth in the 2026-2027 School Performance and Support Framework (SPSF) results, with schools across the division showing meaningful academic progress.
The 2026-2027 results, which reflect student performance and school data from the 2025-2026 school year, show improvement across nearly the entire division. Seven of PCPS’s eight schools increased their overall SPSF score from the previous year, with several schools posting substantial gains.
All Page County Public Schools met state standards to be considered Fully Accredited. Additionally, prior to the application of federal identification considerations, every PCPS school earned a framework score in the Meets Expectations or Distinguished performance categories.
Significant Growth Across PCPS Schools
Page County Middle School demonstrated exceptional progress, increasing its framework score from 84.9 to 91.8, a gain of 6.9 points. The school earned a Distinguished performance rating and was released from its previous federal Additional Targeted Support and Improvement (ATSI) identification.
Both PCPS high schools continued their strong performance. Luray High School earned a framework score of 100.5, while Page County High School earned the division’s highest score at 105.9. Both schools received Distinguished performance ratings.
Significant improvement was also evident across the division’s elementary schools. Shenandoah Elementary School recorded the largest year-to-year increase in PCPS, improving 8.7 points, from 75.5 to 84.2. Luray Elementary School improved 5.7 points, from 77.9 to 83.6. Both schools advanced from Needs Intensive Support to Approaching Expectations.
Springfield Elementary School increased 5.4 points to 88.1, while Stanley Elementary School increased 5.1 points to 84.9. Both schools earned Meets Expectations ratings, with Stanley also advancing a performance category from the previous year.
Luray Middle School continued its strong performance, earning a framework score of 88.9 and a Meets Expectations designation.
“These results are worth celebrating because they represent much more than numbers on a report,” said Dr. Bryan Huber, Superintendent of Page County Public Schools. “They represent the daily work of our students, teachers, administrators, support staff, families, and community. Seven of our eight schools improved their overall framework score, and we are seeing meaningful progress across every level of our division. We also recognize that our work is not finished. We will continue building on this momentum, strengthening instruction, supporting our staff, and remaining relentless in our commitment to ensuring every student has the opportunity to succeed.”
PCPS will continue reviewing school-level and student-group data to identify areas of strength and opportunities for continued improvement. The division remains focused on using these results to guide instructional priorities, provide targeted student support, and build upon the progress demonstrated across its schools.
