Summary

Nutter Fort Intermediate School in Nutter Fort, WV, serves 445 students in grades 3 through 5 as part of the Harrison County Schools district, sharing a campus with the adjacent Nutter Fort Primary School.

This school shows a clear split in academic strengths. In Mathematics, Nutter Fort Intermediate outperforms both its district and the state, with 45.4% of students proficient compared to 40% district-wide and 39.4% statewide. However, English Language Arts tells a different story—only 43.2% of students are proficient, which trails the district average by more than 6 points. The most concerning trend is in Science, where 5th-grade proficiency has plummeted from a strong 39.8% in 2023-2024 to just 24.8% in 2025-2026, now falling well below district and state averages. This rapid decline stands in stark contrast to nearby Johnson Elementary School, which excels in both math (65.7%) and ELA (62.6%).

On a positive note, the school demonstrates remarkable success with specific student groups. Multi-racial students have consistently earned 4-star ratings over the past three years, and the school has shown exceptional support for homeless students, ranking in the top 10 statewide in recent years. The school also maintains a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 11.2:1, suggesting smaller class sizes than many peers. However, the overall trajectory is concerning—the school dropped from the 48th to the 30th percentile in a single year, while nearby Lost Creek Elementary School has held steady with 4-star ratings for three consecutive years. With per-student spending of $11,920—higher than some better-performing neighbors—the resources exist to improve, but the school will need to address its declining ELA and Science scores to reverse its current downward trend.
