Summary:
Logan County Schools serves three high schools—Chapmanville Regional High School, Logan Senior High School, and Man Senior High School—all covering grades 9-12 in the southern West Virginia coalfields region, a district that currently ranks in the bottom 15% of the state.
For parents, the standout school here is Chapmanville Regional High School, which leads the district academically with a 2-star rating, the highest ELA proficiency (44.4%), and a remarkable 98.1% graduation rate—well above the state average of 92.8%. It also has the largest enrollment (645 students) and the least favorable student-teacher ratio (15.5:1), yet still outperforms its peers. Logan Senior High School is the most consistent performer, showing steady improvement in state rankings over three years and posting the district’s best math proficiency (10.8%) and science proficiency (19.8%, closest to the state average). Man Senior High School is the most concerning: despite spending the most per student ($12,862) and having the best student-teacher ratio (11:1), it ranks last in the state with a 0-star rating, and its science proficiency has collapsed to just 6.3%—a drop of 11.2 points in one year.
Across the district, all three schools exceed the state graduation rate, but test proficiency tells a different story. Math proficiency averages just 9.2% (state: 20.6%), and science averages 14.1% (state: 23.6%), meaning students are roughly half as likely to be proficient as their peers statewide. Every school saw declines in ELA from 2024-2025 to 2025-2026, with Logan Senior High School dropping 7.3 points. The disconnect between high graduation rates and low test scores suggests students may be meeting graduation requirements without mastering state standards. For parents, Chapmanville Regional High School offers the strongest academic foundation, while Man Senior High School needs urgent attention, and Logan Senior High School provides a stable, improving option.
