Deep Run High School is a part magnet high school in Henrico County, Virginia, United States.[3] It is named after Deep Run School, one of Henrico County's first schools which was a two-room schoolhouse that can still be found on the grounds of Short Pump Elementary School. The school had approximately 1,900 students and over 135 faculty members during the 2022-2023 school year. About 200 students are part of the Center for Information Technology, a highly competitive magnet program open to all county residents. Deep Run is consistently highly ranked.
In the 2023 rankings, U.S. News & World Report, which ranked 17,680 schools, ranked Deep Run High School #1 in Henrico County, #3 in the Richmond metro area, #11 in Virginia, #90 in national magnet high schools, and #567 nationally. Despite having a robust and very competitive Center for Information Technology enrolling 50-60 students per grade, Deep Run HS was not mentioned on the US News best STEM high school list, perhaps due to not being classified as a “STEM school.”
