Summary

Oak Glen High School in New Cumberland, WV, is a public high school serving 469 students in grades 9-12 within the highly-rated Hancock County Schools district, which ranks 3rd out of 54 districts in the state.

Oak Glen has transformed itself from a 1-star school a decade ago to its current 4-star rating, ranking 22nd out of 105 high schools statewide. The school's most remarkable strength is its exceptional support for special education students, ranking 2nd in the state (98th percentile) for two consecutive years—a clear sign of a well-established, effective program. Oak Glen also shows a dramatic improvement in serving students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, jumping from the 31st percentile in 2023-2024 to the 91st percentile in 2025-2026. Graduation rates are outstanding at 97.5%, well above the state average of 92.8%, and have stayed above 94% for five straight years. Science achievement is a particular highlight, with proficiency rates (28.9%) exceeding both district and state averages by over 5 percentage points. When compared to nearby Brooke High School, Oak Glen outperforms it dramatically across every metric—including a 15-point gap in English Language Arts proficiency and a nearly 13-point higher graduation rate—despite spending over $3,600 less per student.

While Oak Glen excels in many areas, mathematics remains a challenge. Math proficiency (24.7%) does exceed state and district averages, but it has fluctuated between 17% and 26% over the past four years, suggesting some inconsistency. There's also an unusual gender-based performance gap that has flip-flopped in recent years—female students currently rank in the 89th percentile while male students rank in the 57th percentile, though this pattern reversed just two years ago. Within the same district, Oak Glen now outperforms Weir High School on overall ranking, math, ELA, and science, positioning itself as the district's flagship school. For families seeking a school with proven success in supporting diverse learners and a strong upward trajectory, Oak Glen is a compelling choice.

What people are saying

by a parent
Saturday, April 22, 2023

Former student class of 2016, parent of an 18 month daughter. My time during OGHS and OGHS I have witnessed teachers and staff acting inappropriate and perverted towards students on multiple occasions. When I try to do the right thing and tell somebody they act like I’m crazy and say they’ll look in to it but nothing would ever be done about it and like they are all in on some plot.. come to find out today I look on Facebook and see that one of the many teachers at Oak glen was caught for raping and molesting students.. Not sure if this is the case for other schools. I just want others to beware and bring this to somebody’s attention that we need people out of the loop to actually do something and not just say they’ll do something. Reasons like this is why others including myself will NOT be letting my child attend any sort of public or private schools. She will have a proper non-corrupt education, safe from shooters, mentally disturbed children, and worst of all, the people that promised to ensure children’s safety, the teachers and staff.. DO SOMETHING. Close Quote
