Summary

Guyandotte Elementary School is a public elementary school in Huntington, West Virginia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 238 students. The school is part of the Cabell County Schools district, which is ranked 10th out of 55 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $14,871 and a lower student-teacher ratio of 10.4-12.2 students per teacher compared to nearby schools, Guyandotte Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of West Virginia elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a ranking between 198-383 out of 355-408 schools. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the Cabell County and West Virginia averages across all grade levels and subjects, particularly in English Language Arts, where 3rd-grade proficiency is 34.4% compared to 49.4% for Cabell County and 44.8% for the state.

Interestingly, the school's male students outperform their female counterparts, and the African American and Hispanic student populations have historically performed better than the state averages, though still lagging behind the overall school performance. Students with disabilities and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds have shown mixed performance, with some years ranking higher than the state and others ranking significantly lower. These disparities in student group performance suggest the need for targeted interventions to address the underlying challenges and ensure equitable outcomes for all students at Guyandotte Elementary School.
