Summary

Man Elementary School in Mallory, WV, is a small school serving 233 students in grades PK through 4 as part of the Logan County Schools district. The school has seen a significant drop in its statewide ranking, falling from the 32nd percentile in 2024-2025 to the 15th percentile in 2025-2026, which now places it in the bottom tier of elementary schools across West Virginia.

The most striking pattern at Man Elementary is the large gap in academic performance between boys and girls. In the most recent school year, female students ranked in the 44th percentile statewide, while male students ranked in just the 8th percentile—a 36-point difference. This isn't a one-year fluke; the previous year showed an even wider gap, with girls in the 82nd percentile and boys in the 8th. The school also shows a clear split between subjects: math proficiency (42.1%) is actually above both the district and state averages, but English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency (34.1%) lags behind, with 3rd-grade reading scores particularly low at just 24.4% proficient. This suggests that while math instruction is working well, reading and writing strategies may need a fresh approach.

Perhaps the most telling comparison is with South Man Elementary School, located just 1.38 miles away. South Man ranks in the 94th percentile (5 stars) with proficiency rates above 70% in both math and ELA—more than double Man Elementary's scores. Other nearby schools like Buffalo Elementary School (63rd percentile) and Justice Elementary School (50th percentile) also outperform Man Elementary in reading. On a positive note, Man Elementary has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.7, though its per-student spending of $12,439 is lower than all comparable schools in the area, which may limit access to intervention programs and instructional materials.
