Summary

Barrackville Elementary/Middle School is a public school serving 346 students in grades PK-8 in Barrackville, West Virginia, which is part of the Marion County Schools district, ranked 9th out of 55 districts in the state with a 4-star rating.

Barrackville Elementary/Middle School has generally performed well on state assessments, with many grade levels scoring above the state and district averages in both mathematics and English language arts. The school's upper-grade students (6th-8th) consistently outperformed the state and district in these subjects, suggesting the school is effectively supporting the academic growth of its older students. However, the school faces challenges in addressing the needs of its more vulnerable student populations, such as Hispanic, English Language Learner, special education, and low-income students, who have struggled to keep pace with their peers.

Compared to nearby schools, Barrackville generally performs better than the majority of them, with the exception of a few high-performing schools like White Hall Elementary and Pleasant Valley Elementary. By learning from these successful neighboring schools and focusing on targeted interventions for underperforming subgroups, Barrackville can work to become a more consistently excellent school within the Marion County Schools district.
