Quick take
Henry Anderson Elementary is a strong, improving school in central Richmond that benefits from an Early French Immersion program and a highly dedicated parent community. While childcare logistics may require early planning, the school's academic growth and enriching environmental programs make it an excellent choice for families.
Publicly available parent reviews for Henry Anderson Elementary are limited, so signals are drawn from community discussions and news. Parents highlight a highly active and dedicated Parent Advisory Council (PAC), which recently fundraised $80,000 and volunteered to build a new school playground. In community forums, parents note that securing before- and after-school care can be challenging due to high demand, often recommending early registration at nearby daycares to secure priority placement. Overall, the school is well-regarded in the community, particularly for its French Immersion program and engaged parent base.
Highly recommended for families seeking a French Immersion track and a community-oriented school environment. Parents should proactively research and join waitlists for after-school care providers in the catchment area well in advance of the school year.

Fraser Institute · 2026 report
The rating dataset used here covers 2024-2025. The five-year average belongs to that historical report, not the five years ending today.
Academic ratings do not capture the whole school experience, including belonging, support, or fit for your child. A nearby care provider does not necessarily offer school pickup; confirm with the provider.
