Summary

Suncrest Elementary School in Morgantown, WV, is a mid-sized school serving 568 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the highly-rated Monongalia County Schools district, which ranks 5th out of 54 districts in the state.

Suncrest is a consistently strong performer, ranking in the top 10% of West Virginia elementary schools (37th out of 355) with a 4-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year. The school has maintained a 4-star or 5-star rating for the past decade, though its peak years were 2016-2017 (ranked 3rd) and 2017-2018 (ranked 8th). Academically, Suncrest significantly outperforms state averages: 65.6% of students are proficient in Math (vs. 39.4% statewide) and 62.9% in English Language Arts (vs. 47.6% statewide). Its standout subject is 5th-grade Science, where 59.8% proficiency is the highest among all nearby schools, surpassing Cheat Lake Elementary School (55.3%) and Brookhaven Elementary School (56.9%). Suncrest also boasts a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.2, lower than several high-performing peers like Ridgedale Elementary School (16.8) and Cheat Lake (16.3), suggesting smaller class sizes and more individualized attention.

One of Suncrest's most notable strengths is its support for Special Education students, ranking 34th in the state (78th percentile) — a significant improvement from 94th just two years prior. The school also demonstrates strong results for its majority demographic and female students, ranking in the 92nd-93rd percentile statewide. However, Suncrest faces a challenge with its Low Socio-Economic Status (SES) students, who rank 132nd (58th percentile), highlighting an achievement gap that is common in college towns with diverse family backgrounds. Despite spending less per student ($12,074) than several nearby schools like Mylan Park Elementary School ($14,442) and Skyview Elementary School ($14,083), Suncrest achieves better academic outcomes, making it a highly efficient school. While Cheat Lake and Ridgedale lead the area in overall academics, Suncrest's exceptional Science program, lower student-teacher ratio, and strong inclusive practices make it a top choice for Morgantown families seeking a well-rounded, effective elementary education.
