Summary:
The city of Weston, West Virginia is home to three public schools: Lewis County High School, Peterson-Central Elementary School, and Robert L. Bland Middle School, all of which serve students in Lewis County Schools. Unfortunately, the data indicates that these schools are generally underperforming compared to state averages across various academic measures.
None of the three schools in Weston appear to be standout performers. Lewis County High School ranked 94th out of 111 West Virginia high schools in 2024-2025, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Peterson-Central Elementary School ranked 335th out of 355 West Virginia elementary schools, with a 0-star rating. Robert L. Bland Middle School ranked 148th out of 168 West Virginia middle schools, also with a 1-star rating. All three schools performed significantly below the state average in mathematics, English language arts, and science proficiency for their respective grade levels.
The data suggests that the schools in Weston face resource challenges, with relatively low per-student spending ranging from $10,139 to $11,613 in the 2018-2019 school year, and high student-teacher ratios between 14.8 and 16.2 in the 2023-2024 school year. The consistent underperformance across the schools indicates a need for targeted interventions and support to address the root causes of the academic challenges faced by the district.
