Summary

Frankford Elementary is a small, rural school in Frankford, WV, serving 217 students in grades PK through 5 as part of the Greenbrier County Schools district. The school maintains a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 11.7:1 and spends more per student ($15,057) than most nearby schools, yet its overall performance has seen a notable decline in the most recent school year.

In the 2025-2026 school year, Frankford Elementary outperformed both its district and state averages in core subjects, with 49.5% proficiency in Math (compared to 36% district and 39.4% state) and 52.6% in English Language Arts (compared to 43.2% district and 47.6% state). However, the school's overall statewide ranking dropped significantly from the 78th percentile to the 53rd percentile. This decline is reflected across multiple student groups, including a sharp drop for low-income students from the 90th percentile to the 57th percentile. The most concerning finding is that the Special Education subgroup ranked last in the entire state (0th percentile), which is a critical area requiring immediate attention. Additionally, while 3rd graders perform well above state averages in both Math (63.3%) and ELA (56.7%), 5th graders fall below state averages in Math (36.4% vs. 44%) and Science (30.3% vs. 34.6%), suggesting the school struggles to maintain academic growth as students advance.

Compared to nearby schools, Frankford Elementary sits in the middle of the pack. Smoot Elementary outperforms Frankford in Math (65.1% vs. 49.5%) with similar ELA scores, while Rupert Elementary exceeds Frankford in both subjects and has shown strong improvement. Hillsboro Elementary School in the Pocahontas County Schools district is a top performer, significantly outpacing Frankford in every subject, including a 72.7% proficiency in 5th-grade Science compared to Frankford's 30.3%. Despite spending more per student than most in-district peers like Lewisburg Elementary and White Sulphur Elementary, Frankford's outcomes suggest that resource allocation alone isn't driving results, and there's untapped potential for better performance given its favorable class sizes and funding.
