Schools

Every one of the 3,359 county address points in the Census place is zoned for Stone Hill Middle and Rock Ridge High for 2026-27. The elementary school depends on the street.

Rosa Lee Carter, Stone Hill and Rock Ridge are all inside the Census place. The rating is the school’s level in Virginia’s School Performance and Support Framework; all five are Fully Accredited for 2025-26. Check one address in the LCPS LABEL lookup and see our schools guide.

For the Sterling-address part, ZIP 20166 was $615,801, down 1.1% from $622,553; that ZIP is mostly the Dulles area of Sterling, so it says little about these homes.
