Summary:
The city of Williamson, West Virginia is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Williamson Pk8 and Lenore Pk8 School) and 1 high school (Tug Valley High School). Based on the available data, Lenore Pk8 School stands out as the highest-performing school, ranking 111 out of 355 West Virginia elementary schools and outperforming the Mingo County Schools district and the state of West Virginia in several academic metrics.
Tug Valley High School also performs well, ranking 23 out of 112 West Virginia high schools and maintaining a high 4-year graduation rate of 92.5%. However, the high school underperforms the district and state in 11th grade mathematics and science proficiency. In contrast, Williamson Pk8 and Lenore Pk8 School generally perform below the district and state averages in mathematics and English language arts proficiency.
The data suggests that higher per-student spending at Tug Valley High School, at $15,079 in 2018-2019, does not necessarily translate to better academic outcomes compared to the elementary schools. Additionally, the lack of information on free and reduced-price lunch rates makes it difficult to fully understand the socioeconomic context of the schools and how that may be impacting their performance.
