We strive to equip our students with the knowledge, skills, and character necessary to become responsible contributing members of society.

Discover Your Strengths with the ASVAB!

Not sure what you want to do after high school? The ASVAB is more than a military test! It can help students identify their strengths, explore careers that match their skills and interests, and make informed decisions about college, training programs, employment, or military service.

Testing Dates: October 8 • November 5 • December 3 • January 20 • February 14 • March 14 • April 14

Taking the ASVAB does not require a commitment to the military. It is a great opportunity to learn more about yourself and explore your options for life after high school.

VDOE Approves Higher Cut Scores for Virginia Standards of Learning Tests

In September 2025, the Virginia Board of Education approved higher cut scores for Virginia students on our Standards of Learning (SOL) tests in reading and mathematics. This will align Virginia’s proficiency cut scores with national benchmarks and ensure proficiency on state tests reflects student mastery of Virginia’s more rigorous academic standards. In December 2025, the Board approved a four-year, phased-in implementation of those higher cut scores, with the first increase in cut scores occurring in the 2026-2027 school year.
