What stands out about Brunswick County Public Schools

  • Estimated teacher pay here rose +22.8% between FY2019 and FY2023, outpacing Virginia's statewide +17.6% by 5.2 points, a growth rate faster than 74% of the 129 Virginia districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment fell from 1,616 to 1,405 students (13.1% down) across FY2019–FY2023 while the instructional salary pool per teacher went up.
