Middle Schools in Harrison County Schools

Summary:

The Harrison County Schools district in West Virginia is home to 6 middle schools, serving students in grades 6-8. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance among these schools, with Bridgeport Middle School consistently ranking among the top middle schools in the state, while other schools like Washington Irving Middle School and Mountaineer Middle School struggle to meet state and district averages.

Bridgeport Middle School stands out as an exceptional performer, maintaining a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and significantly outperforming the district and state in math, English language arts, and science proficiency across all grade levels. In contrast, South Harrison Middle School, ranked 44th out of 168 middle schools in the state, demonstrates strong performance in English language arts and science, but lags behind in other areas.

The data also reveals variations in spending per student, ranging from $9,545 at Evolution Middle School to $14,266 at Mountaineer Middle School. However, the impact of these differences on student outcomes is not immediately evident. Additionally, the absence of free/reduced lunch rate data for the individual schools limits the analysis of the potential influence of socioeconomic factors on academic performance.
