RPS is the worst school district in the state and a total dumpster fire, but I assume you already know this

Whenever the school question comes up, there are several posts saying how God awful they are and several more swearing that they are doing God's work.

I suppose it depends on your POV. Give it a shot, and if you don't like it HCPS are next door.

Petersburg Public Schools would like a word with you.

They are doing gods work because it’s a disaster no one wants a part of, not because they have been successful. Look at the reading/math levels and graduation rate

So I've been told. Have you worked for them?

You want Henrico County schools if you have a choice, not that it’s perfect but it’s worlds better than RPS I’ve been told

Depends on which part of Henrico County. The east end has the same issues with students BUT the administration is a tad better than RPS administration.

I found this one, but I'm positive there are more as it's been a bit of a hot (mess) topic recently: https://www.reddit.com/r/rva/comments/ti2v4w/teacher_couple_hoping_to_move_to_richmond_next/

Better than Franklin county

Thank you I've been trying to find similar threads!
