Last checked Oct. 19, 2026. Sources: Chesterfield County Public Schools, its School Locator, the Virginia Department of Education’s School Quality Profiles, the federal NCES school directory and the NCES Private School Survey.

Every public school in Midlothian is run by Chesterfield County Public Schools (CCPS), the county school division. Midlothian is unincorporated, so there is no town school system. CCPS assigns each student to an elementary, middle and high school by home address, and zones do not follow ZIP codes or the Midlothian name: neighbors on the same ZIP code can go to different schools. Check any address on the CCPS School Locator 2026-2027. The division’s main number is 804-748-1405.

This page lists the 21 schools whose mailing address is Midlothian, plus Monacan High in North Chesterfield, whose zone takes in a small area on the eastern edge of the Census-defined Midlothian community. The division’s zone maps put almost all of that community in the Midlothian High zone. Each school has its own page with its address, principal, enrollment, state ratings, feeder schools, bell times and calendar.

Virginia rates each school on its School Quality Profile. All 22 schools here are Fully Accredited for 2025-26. The state’s School Performance and Support Framework gives each a score and one of four levels: Distinguished, Meets Expectations, Approaching Expectations or Needs Intensive Support. Enrollment is the state’s fall 2025 count. Tables are in alphabetical order.
