Norwood Elementary stands out for its significantly higher percentage of white students (93.31%) compared to nearby schools, which range from 84.63% to 98.1% white students. Academically, the school's performance on state assessments is generally lower than the district and state averages, with 3rd grade math proficiency at 51.2% compared to the district's 48.4% and the state's 51.6%. Norwood Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of West Virginia elementary schools, currently at 223 out of 368 schools with a 2-star rating.

While Norwood Elementary performs well for Asian and Hispanic students, it ranks in the bottom half for white students and the bottom 20% for special education students. Despite spending $13,123 per student, which is higher than the state average, the school's academic challenges persist. Comparing Norwood to nearby schools like Lumberport Elementary, West Milford Elementary, and Lost Creek Elementary, which have higher proficiency rates, suggests that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to Norwood's performance issues, particularly for special education and low-income students.
