Ecoff Elementary School has been part of the Chester community for over 22 years. This Chesterfield County Public School was built on top of a former golf course surrounded by Goyne Park. Offering academics for students in kindergarten through 5th grade, Ecoff Elementary school offers special education, gifted programs and summer school. Like many other schools in the area, this school focuses highly on its students, staff, parents and community. Providing students with several outlets for learning, this school offers several clubs, including an archery team for fourth and fifth graders, Girls Who Code for third through fifth graders and Books & Breakfast for all grade levels. The school also differentiates itself by implementing the principles of Social-Emotional Learning since it opened its doors in 1990, providing life lessons outside of standard academics. Throughout the academic year, Ecoff partners up with several organizations Like Friendly Helpers, so students have the opportunity to learn and develop their skills.

GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
