Summary:
The Shenandoah Junction area of West Virginia is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals that Jefferson High School is the standout performer, consistently ranking among the top 11 high schools in the state and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, the other elementary school, T.A. Lowery Elementary, has lower test scores and a lower rating, suggesting room for improvement in the district's elementary education.
The data also highlights the strong performance of Driswood Elementary School, which ranks in the top 102 elementary schools in the state and earns a 4-star rating. Driswood's students excel in math, with 67.9% of 3rd graders and 57.7% of 4th graders proficient or better, significantly outpacing the district and state averages. This suggests the school is providing an excellent math education to its elementary students.
Overall, the schools in the Jefferson County Schools district serve a diverse student population, with significant percentages of Hispanic and African American students. However, the lack of data on free and reduced-price lunch rates makes it difficult to assess potential equity issues within the district. The consistent high performance of Jefferson High School and the strong math scores at Driswood Elementary are positive indicators, but the variation in elementary school quality suggests the district may have room for improvement in providing a consistently high-quality education across all its schools.
