The city of Mannington, West Virginia is home to two schools - Blackshere Elementary School and Mannington Middle School. While both schools serve the Mannington community, the data reveals that they have room for improvement across various metrics compared to county and state averages.
Academically, neither school stands out as a top performer. Blackshere Elementary is ranked 243 out of 368 West Virginia elementary schools and has a 2-star rating, while Mannington Middle is ranked 80 out of 168 West Virginia middle schools with a 3-star rating.
