For a family looking to make a move, the quality of an area’s school system can play an important role. Did you know that two Lynchburg High Schools, E.C. Glass and Heritage High, are recognized on Newsweek’s list of America’s Best High Schools. The list is composed of the top 1,600 public high schools. What is really impressive is that only six percent of all the public schools in the U.S.made this list. Isn’t that amazing? E.C. Glass was ranked at 778 and Heritage High School was not far behind with 911.
Lynchburg is a great place to raise a family. Here is a little breakdown on the Lynchburg City Schools:
- 11 elementary schools
- three middle schools
- two high schools
- the Central Virginia Governor’s School for Science and Technology
- six private schools, five of which are faith based
The surrounding four counties of Bedford, Campbell, Amherst, and Appomattox collectively have 31 elementary schools, eight middle schools, seven high schools and seven private schools plus the Bedford Science and Technology Center and the Campbell County Technical Center. How’s that for education?
