A few schools stand out as performing better than the district and state averages. Logan Elementary School ranks 66 out of 355 West Virginia elementary schools and is rated 4 out of 5 stars, with consistently high test scores in math and English language arts. South Man Elementary School is another high-performing elementary school, ranked 65 out of 355 in the state and rated 4 out of 5 stars, with impressive test scores. Buffalo Elementary School ranks 54 out of 355 elementary schools in the state and is rated 4 out of 5 stars, with particularly strong math performance.
The district's high schools have a 92.5% four-year graduation rate, on par with the state average. However, performance on state assessments varies widely across the district, with proficiency rates ranging from 5% to 75% depending on the grade, subject, and school. The higher-spending schools tend to have better performance, and the lower-performing schools generally have higher student-teacher ratios. The high poverty levels in the district are likely a major factor contributing to the overall low performance, and addressing the underlying social and economic challenges facing the community could be crucial for improving educational outcomes.
