Summary

Doddridge County High School, a public high school serving grades 9-12 in West Union, West Virginia, stands out as a high-performing institution with an enrollment of 344 students. Part of the Doddridge County Schools district, which is ranked 7th out of 55 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, the school has consistently ranked among the top high schools in West Virginia, reaching as high as 10th out of 111 schools in the 2024-2025 school year.

Doddridge County High School's academic performance is particularly impressive, with 60.6% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 35.1% proficient or better in Mathematics, significantly outpacing the state averages of 55.1% and 20.3%, respectively. The school's performance in Science is also noteworthy, with 36.6% of 11th-grade students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 27.8%. Additionally, the school has maintained high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 92.5% to 100% in recent years, consistently outperforming the state average.

While the school excels in overall academic performance and for certain student subgroups, such as female and white students, the relatively lower performance of special education and English language learner students is an area that may require further attention and targeted interventions. Interestingly, Doddridge County High School spends significantly more per student ($26,343) compared to nearby Tyler Consolidated High School ($17,736 per student) and Ritchie County High School ($11,929 per student), which raises questions about the efficiency and effectiveness of resource allocation at the school.
