Question :We are thinking of moving/ buying a home in Williamsburg VA or nearby York County, James City County, New Kent County Virginia and are wondering how to find out how violent a school is in the Williamsburg VA area as well as school in James City County, Newport News, Hampton, Poquoson, Isle of Wight, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Va Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Suffolk and the surrounding areas ?
Answer. You can go here to the Dept of Education website for the State of Virginia and look up any incident of crime or violence.
The Charts & Reports feature on the DOE website can provide any of the following Information about Reported Incidents in schools,Information about Offenses and their frequency in schools ,Information about Student Offenders ,Information about Non-student Offenders and Information about the Disciplinary Outcomes that resulted from the student offenses .
You can search for these reports for any school in the state of Virginia. Do realize that not all principals or schools report offenses in the same manner. I know principals in different school districts who confirm that incidents are reported differently in area schools. The site will allow you to search by:
School Year ,School Division – up to 2 at a time,,School Type i.e. elementary, middle, or high school,School Name – up to 20 at a time, Offense Category (groups of like offenses) – 1 at a time ,Offense Type – up to 8 at a time ,Discipline Type – for Disciplinary Outcomes and Student Offenders charts only and Time Element – for Incident Frequency, Offense Frequency and Non-student Offenders charts only
