Elementary Schools in Webster County Schools

Summary:

The Webster County Schools district in West Virginia is home to three elementary schools: Glade Elementary School, Webster Springs Elementary School, and Hacker Valley Elementary School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and provide educational opportunities in the Webster County region.

Among the three schools, Webster Springs Elementary School stands out as the strongest performer, with consistently higher proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts compared to the district and state averages, particularly in the 3rd and 4th grades. The school has also maintained a higher statewide ranking, placing 132 out of 368 West Virginia elementary schools in the 2022-2023 school year and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Glade Elementary School has consistently lower proficiency rates in both subjects compared to the district and state.

The smallest school in the district, Hacker Valley Elementary School, has experienced a concerning decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 72 out of 399 schools in 2016-2017 to 287 out of 380 schools in 2020-2021, with its rating falling from 4 stars to 1 star. This trend warrants further investigation to understand the underlying factors contributing to the school's performance decline. Additionally, the lack of comprehensive demographic data, such as free and reduced-price lunch rates, limits the ability to fully contextualize the schools' performance and identify potential areas for improvement.
