Summary:
The city of Kearneysville, West Virginia, has a small school system with 3 schools, including 1 elementary school, 0 middle schools, 0 high schools, and 2 alternative schools. The data reveals stark differences in academic performance between the traditional elementary school and the alternative schools, as well as variations in the racial composition of the student populations.
North Jefferson Elementary, the sole traditional elementary school, has a relatively low statewide ranking, ranking 318th out of 368 West Virginia elementary schools, and its test scores are significantly below the Jefferson County and West Virginia averages. However, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.8, which could be a positive factor. In contrast, the two alternative schools, Eastern Panhandle Preparatory Academy and Virtual Preparatory Academy of West Virginia, have a higher percentage of white students compared to the elementary school.
The data set is missing key information, such as free and reduced lunch rates and student-teacher ratios for the alternative schools, which limits the ability to conduct a thorough comparative analysis across all the schools. However, the stark differences in academic performance between the elementary school and the alternative schools, as well as the variations in racial composition, are areas that warrant further investigation and analysis to better understand the overall performance and characteristics of the school system in Kearneysville, West Virginia.
