Public Grades

Summary

Slanesville Elementary School is a public elementary school in Slanesville, West Virginia, serving 183 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Hampshire County Schools district, which is ranked 21 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

Slanesville Elementary School consistently outperforms the Hampshire County Schools district and the state of West Virginia in academic assessments across multiple grade levels and subjects. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school had significantly higher proficiency rates than the district and state in 3rd grade math, 4th grade math, and 3rd grade English Language Arts. This trend of strong academic performance has been consistent over the past several years, with Slanesville ranking among the top 25% of West Virginia elementary schools. The school's student-teacher ratio is relatively low, ranging from 12.2 to 12.7 over the past three school years, and its per-student spending of $10,919 in 2018-2019 was higher than the state average.

However, Slanesville Elementary School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (94.54%) compared to the state and district averages, with a lower percentage of minority students. This lack of racial diversity may be a concern and could impact the educational experiences and perspectives of the students. When compared to the nearby schools in the same district, such as Romney Elementary, Springfield-Green Spring Elementary, and Augusta Elementary, Slanesville Elementary School consistently outperforms them in academic assessments, suggesting that it may be a high-performing outlier within the Hampshire County Schools district.
