Best Public Schools in Farmington, WV

Summary:

Farmington, West Virginia is home to a single public high school, North Marion High School, which serves grades 9-12 and is part of the Marion County Schools district. While the district is ranked 9 out of 55 in the state and has a 4-star rating, North Marion High School's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating from 25th out of 112 high schools in 2023-2024 to 90th out of 112 in 2022-2023.

Academically, North Marion High School's proficiency rates in Mathematics, English Language Arts, and Science are all slightly below the county and state averages. The school's 4-year graduation rate for 2023-2024 was 92.5%, which is a positive indicator. However, the school's spending per student of $12,788 for the 2018-2019 school year is relatively high, and it's unclear how this funding is being utilized to improve student outcomes.

Overall, while North Marion High School is part of a relatively high-performing school district, the school itself appears to be facing some challenges in terms of academic performance and consistency. Further investigation would be needed to understand the root causes of the school's performance and identify potential areas for improvement.
