Summary

Lumberport Elementary School in Lumberport, WV, serves approximately 225 students from Pre-K through 5th grade in the small community of Lumberport, and is part of Harrison County Schools.

Lumberport Elementary has experienced a dramatic decline in academic performance over the past three years, falling from a mid-tier ranking (51st percentile) in 2022-2023 to near the bottom of the state (5th percentile) in the most recent school year. The most concerning area is English Language Arts, where only 29.1% of students are proficient compared to the district average of 49.4%—a gap of more than 20 percentage points. Math proficiency (32.7%) also trails the district (40%), and science scores (22.2%) are below both district and state averages. The school shows a troubling pattern of declining performance as students advance: 3rd graders achieve 41.9% in math, but by 4th grade that drops to 27.9%, and 4th grade ELA proficiency sits at just 23.3%—less than half the district rate. When compared to nearby Johnson Elementary School, just 7.5 miles away, the contrast is stark: Johnson achieves more than double Lumberport's proficiency rates in both math (65.7%) and ELA (62.6%).

Despite these challenges, the school has notable structural advantages. With a student-to-teacher ratio of 9.8:1—among the lowest in the area—and per-student spending of $14,342 (about 25% more than Johnson Elementary), the school is investing significant resources. However, these investments haven't translated into academic gains. The school's performance with special education students has also collapsed, falling from the 87th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 15th percentile in 2025-2026, and outcomes for low-income students now rank in the bottom 4% statewide. While the school's small size and favorable staffing ratios provide a foundation for improvement, the consistent underperformance across all subjects and grade levels suggests systemic challenges that will require comprehensive intervention. The district's overall 4-star rating indicates successful practices exist within Harrison County Schools—the key will be adapting those approaches to Lumberport's specific context.
