What stands out at Dunn Loring Early Childhood Resource Center

A combined-grade campus has a different support burden

Dunn Loring Early Childhood Resource Center serves a combined grade span rather than a conventional elementary, middle, or high-school band. That structure can require the same campus to cover transitions, counseling needs, and programs for students at substantially different developmental stages, so a single staffing ratio deserves more caution than it would at a narrower-grade school. Federal totals show the available people and programs, but not how those resources are divided among grade levels.

Dunn Loring Early Childhood Resource Center is a small combined-grade school in Dunn Loring, Virginia, enrolling 266 students.

Enrollment of 266 puts it in the smaller third of Virginia schools by headcount.

Its Resource Investment Index trails 99% of the 1,868 Virginia schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.

Its student body is led by White (59%) and Hispanic or Latino (30%) (diversity index 56/100).

The surrounding Fairfax County Public Schools spends $17,977 per pupil, 23% above the Virginia average, a better-resourced district than most.

Fairfax County Public Schools also operates Lake Braddock Secondary (4,411 students) and Robinson Secondary (3,710 students) alongside Dunn Loring Early Childhood Resource Center.
