6-12 Summers County Comprehensive High School

Public Grades 6-12

Summary

6-12 Summers County Comprehensive High School in Hinton, WV, serves 627 students in grades 6 through 12 and is the sole high school within the Summers County Schools district, which ranks 49th out of 54 districts in the state.

The school's most impressive achievement is its exceptional graduation rate of 98.9% for 2024-2025, which surpasses the state average of 92.8% and even exceeds nearby Shady Spring High (96.0%). This represents a remarkable turnaround from just 79.2% three years earlier. However, this success in keeping students on track to graduate contrasts sharply with declining academic performance. The school's overall state ranking dropped from 46th (59th percentile) in 2023-2024 to 71st (32nd percentile) in 2025-2026. Most concerning is a severe gender disparity: female students rank in the 63rd percentile statewide, while male students rank in the 2nd percentile—a dramatic and sudden decline from the 46th percentile just one year prior. Mathematics proficiency is critically low at 12.7%, less than a third of the state average (39.4%) and roughly half of nearby Shady Spring High's rate (25.8%).

Despite a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 12.2:1—considerably lower than nearby schools like James Monroe High (23:1) and Shady Spring High (14.7:1)—this resource advantage is not translating into higher test scores. The school's 11th-grade math proficiency (12.1%) and ELA proficiency (48.5%) both trail all nearby Raleigh County Schools with available data. A relative bright spot is 11th-grade ELA, which sits close to the state average (51.2%). Performance among Special Education students also plummeted from the 80th percentile to the 16th percentile in just one year, suggesting the school faces significant challenges in supporting its most vulnerable learners despite its strong graduation outcomes.
