Augusta Elementary School

Public Grades
Summary

Augusta Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Augusta, West Virginia, with a student population of 305. 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 from SchoolDigger.

While Augusta Elementary School has a very homogeneous student population, with over 98% of students identifying as White, its academic performance is generally below the county and state averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 34.2% in 2023-2024, compared to 50% for the Hampshire County Schools district and 53.2% for the state. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from a high of 136 out of 402 West Virginia elementary schools in 2014-2015 to a low of 282 out of 368 in the current 2023-2024 school year, and it is currently rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

When compared to other nearby elementary schools in the same district, such as Capon Bridge Elementary and Slanesville Elementary, Augusta Elementary School generally underperforms in terms of academic proficiency rates and statewide rankings. The school's high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (48.24% in 2020-2021) may be a contributing factor to its academic struggles, and the lack of racial diversity at the school may limit its exposure to diverse perspectives and experiences.
