- Framework score: 77.49, performance level Needs Intensive Support, in the state’s division summary.

Rezoning: the rezoning plan the School Board approved Nov. 26, 2024, which took effect in the 2025-26 school year, was built around Point O’View. It moved Greenwich Village, Artistry on Greenwich and Boulevard Manor to Arrowhead Elementary; Bonney’s Quay, Kemps Cove, Kemps Lake, Kemps Village at Town Center and Kempsville Lake west of Kenley Road to Kempsville Elementary; and the 122 Mac St. Apartments to Pembroke Elementary. Huntington Estates moved from Arrowhead and Kempsville Heights from Kempsville Elementary into the Point O’View zone. The division said the change was made to accommodate rising enrollment and new housing in the Point O’View zone.
