Summary:

The Randolph County Schools district in West Virginia is home to three high schools: Elkins High School, Tygarts Valley Middle/High School, and Randolph County Alternative Center. While Elkins High School has the highest enrollment and graduation rates, it has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking and performance. Tygarts Valley Middle/High School, on the other hand, spends more per student and has a lower student-teacher ratio, but struggles with lower proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts. The Randolph County Alternative Center, a small school with just 25 students, faces significant challenges as one of the lowest-performing schools in the state.

Elkins High School stands out as the largest school in the district, with 740 students, and has the highest 4-year graduation rate at 92.5%. However, its statewide ranking has dropped from 55th in 2022-2023 to 102nd in 2024-2025, and its SchoolDigger star rating has decreased from 3 to 0 over the same period, indicating a concerning trend of declining performance. In contrast, Tygarts Valley Middle/High School has a lower student-teacher ratio of 12.5 and spends more per student at $10,502, but its proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts are significantly lower than the state averages.

The Randolph County Schools district as a whole is ranked 55 out of 55 districts in West Virginia and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, suggesting that the district is underperforming compared to other districts in the state. The Randolph County Alternative Center, with its high per-student spending of $19,523 in 2018-2019, may be providing specialized services or programs to support its unique student population, but it has historically been one of the lowest-performing schools in the state.
