Summary

Midland Elementary School in Elkins, WV, is a small school serving 164 students in grades PK through 5, and it stands out as a top academic performer within the Randolph County Schools district.

Midland consistently outperforms its district and state averages, especially in math, where 57.5% of students are proficient compared to just 24.2% in the district and 39.4% statewide. The school also excels in English Language Arts (50% proficient) and 5th-grade science (43.2% proficient). This academic success is even more notable given that the district as a whole ranks in the bottom 10% of West Virginia. Midland's 11.7:1 student-teacher ratio is the lowest among nearby schools, allowing for more personalized attention. The school also shows exceptional support for special education students, ranking in the 83rd percentile statewide, and has earned a 5-star rating for its work with homeless students.

Compared to its immediate neighbors, Midland is a clear leader. For example, George Ward Elementary School (28.4% math proficiency), Coalton Elementary School (16% math proficiency), and Beverly Elementary School (18.2% math proficiency) all trail significantly. Even the closest competitor, Jennings Randolph Elementary School, is 12.5 points behind in math. While Midland's low-income students score slightly below the state average, the school's overall upward trajectory—rebounding to the 66th percentile statewide—and its efficient use of resources make it the strongest elementary option in the Elkins area.
