Summary:
The city of Hinton, West Virginia is home to a single high school, the 6-12 Summers County Comprehensive High School, which serves grades 6 through 12. The school's performance and rankings have fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 46th out of 112 schools in 2023-2024 to 83rd out of 112 in 2022-2023. Its overall rating by SchoolDigger has also varied, from 1 star out of 5 in 2022-2023 to 3 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024.
The school's graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year was a respectable 92.5%. However, its test score performance has been mixed, with 11th-grade students scoring below the state average in English Language Arts (48.9% proficiency vs. 55.1% state average) but slightly above the state average in Mathematics (21.3% proficiency vs. 20.3% state average). The school's Summers County Schools district is ranked 53rd out of 55 districts in West Virginia and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
With a student-teacher ratio of 11.9, the 6-12 Summers County Comprehensive High School appears to have a relatively small class size, which could be an advantage in providing more individualized attention to students. However, the lack of specific data on free/reduced lunch rates suggests that the school may serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, which could be a contributing factor to its performance challenges and may require targeted interventions and support.
