Norfolk Public Schools Zoning Is Changing Here
Huntersville is served by Norfolk Public Schools, but this is one of the areas most affected by the division's ongoing boundary consolidation. P.B. Young, Sr. Elementary, which has served part of Huntersville, is planned to close as part of a Phase II redistricting, with different blocks of Huntersville being reassigned to Jacox Elementary, Monroe Elementary or Taylor Elementary depending on exact location, and Ruffner Academy has also served students in this area historically. Booker T. Washington High School has served the broader zone including Huntersville along with Jacox, P.B. Young and Ruffner as part of the district's connected pathway schools.
Because these lines are actively being redrawn, and can differ by a single street or block, I strongly recommend confirming the current elementary, middle and high school assignment for any specific Huntersville address directly with Norfolk Public Schools before you buy.
How to Confirm Your Exact Zone
Norfolk Public Schools maintains attendance zone maps and a division office that can confirm zoning by address, and I recommend calling or checking with them directly given how recently boundaries have shifted here. I'm also happy to help you track down the answer for a specific property as part of your home search.
A Word on School Ratings
I don't want to guess at GreatSchools ratings for the elementary and middle schools whose attendance boundaries are actively changing here. Booker T. Washington High School, which serves the broader zone including Huntersville, carries a GreatSchools rating of 1 out of 10 [1](https://www.greatschools.org/virginia/norfolk/1166-B.-T.-Washington-High-School/). If school ratings are a top priority for your family, I'd rather help you compare verified, current ratings for the specific elementary and middle schools your address would be assigned to once we've confirmed zoning.
