About Fairfax County Public Schools
Families in zip code 22102 (Mclean, Virginia) are assigned to Fairfax County Public Schools for public education through 12th. This overview covers the district’s funding levels, scale, rating, and what to expect from the enrollment process if you’re moving to or within this zip code.
Understanding the 8/10 Rating
SchoolDistrictFinder rates Fairfax County Public Schools 8 out of 10 — above average among Virginia public school districts. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in Virginia’s SOL (Standards of Learning) English Reading & Mathematics assessments (2024–25 school year). We average each district’s reading and math proficiency, then rank it against other districts in the same state to produce a 1–10 score. Because Virginia is compared only against itself, the rating reflects how this district performs relative to its in-state peers.
Fairfax County Public Schools ranks among the highest-performing public school districts in Virginia on state assessments, with reading and math proficiency rates in roughly the top 10–20% statewide. Homes in and around zip code 22102 often carry a measurable premium relative to neighboring areas served by lower-rated districts. Families moving here for academic strength will find a district whose students test well above the state norm. Even within top-rated districts, individual school performance varies — confirm your specific school assignments directly with the district.
