Summary

Bridgeport Middle School, located in Bridgeport, WV, serves 590 students in grades 6 through 8 and is part of the Harrison County Schools district, which ranks 17th out of 54 districts in the state.

Bridgeport Middle School is one of the top-performing middle schools in West Virginia, with a decade-long track record of excellence. It has ranked in the top 10 in the state in 9 of the last 10 years, and while it recently slipped to 13th (down from 3rd in the prior two years), it remains in the top 10% of all middle schools statewide. Academically, the school significantly outperforms both district and state averages. In 2025-2026, 48.6% of students were proficient in Math (vs. 39.4% statewide) and 61% were proficient in English Language Arts (vs. 47.6% statewide). Science scores are also strong, with 40.2% of 8th graders proficient compared to 29.3% statewide. The school achieves these results across all three grade levels, with every grade outperforming district and state averages by substantial margins. Notably, Bridgeport does this efficiently—spending less per student ($11,553) than several nearby schools that rank far lower, such as Mountaineer Middle School ($14,266) and Washington Irving Middle School ($13,034).

Compared to its regional peers, Bridgeport is a clear academic leader. Its Math proficiency rate (48.6%) is nearly double that of Washington Irving Middle School (11.4% in 6th grade) and more than double Mountaineer Middle School's rates. Its ELA proficiency (61%) exceeds every other school in the comparison set, including Monongah Middle School (55.4%). However, there are areas of concern. The school's Special Education subgroup has seen a sharp decline in ranking—from 43rd to 76th over the past three years—and its performance with economically disadvantaged students has also dropped from a 5-star to a 3-star rating. While Bridgeport remains an elite institution, these trends suggest the school may need to refocus its support for its most vulnerable students to ensure excellence extends to all.
