Summary

Man Senior High School is a small, rural high school in Man, WV, serving 321 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Logan County Schools district.

The most striking thing about Man Senior High is the disconnect between its academic performance and its graduation rate. While the school ranks at the very bottom of the state academically (105 out of 105 high schools), its graduation rate is a standout 96.3% for 2024-2025—well above the state average of 92.8%. This pattern has held for three straight years, suggesting the school is very effective at keeping students on track to earn a diploma, even though standardized test scores are critically low. In 2025-2026, only 7.5% of 11th graders were proficient in math, 26.3% in English, and 6.3% in science—all dramatically below state averages. For comparison, nearby Westside High School, just 12.76 miles away, has a math proficiency rate that is double Man's, and Logan Senior High School outperforms Man in every subject. Interestingly, Man spends more per student ($12,862) than its in-district peers and has a favorable 11:1 student-teacher ratio, yet these resources aren't translating into academic gains.

There are also signs of instability in how the school supports different groups of students. Special Education students ranked in the 71st percentile in 2023-2024, then fell to the 13th percentile the next year before recovering to the 38th percentile. Low-income students saw a similar drop, from the 30th to the 2nd percentile between 2023-2024 and 2024-2025. English Language Arts scores have also been volatile, jumping from 38% to 48.6% (surpassing the state average) before falling back to 26.3%. For parents, this school offers a caring environment where nearly every student graduates, but the academic challenges and inconsistent support for vulnerable populations are important factors to weigh carefully.
