Summary

Flemington Elementary School is a small, rural school in Flemington, WV, serving 107 students from Pre-K through 4th grade in the Taylor County Schools district. The school has a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 12.1, which means your child is likely to get plenty of individual attention.

The most important thing to know about Flemington is that its academic performance has been on a roller coaster over the past decade. In 2015-2016, this was one of the top schools in the state, ranking in the 99th percentile with a 5-star rating. However, performance dropped sharply around 2020, and the school now holds a 1-star rating. In the most recent testing year, math proficiency was 29.3%, well below the state average of 39.4%. The picture is more mixed in English Language Arts: 4th graders posted a 47.6% proficiency rate, which is close to the state average and actually beats the district average. This suggests that while there are challenges, there are also pockets of strength to build on.

It's helpful to compare Flemington to West Taylor Elementary, a school just 4.25 miles away in the same district. West Taylor is a 4-star school with proficiency rates nearly double Flemington's in both math (62.8% vs. 29.3%) and ELA (60.6% vs. 39%). This gap is striking because the two schools serve similar communities with similar resources. Flemington actually spends more per student ($13,886) than West Taylor ($10,773) or any other nearby school, which raises questions about whether current programs are the right fit. On the positive side, the school's history proves it can achieve at a high level, and the brief rebound to a 3-star rating in 2022-2023 shows improvement is possible with the right support.

Open Quote The teachers and staff are always very friendly and responsive if there is ever an issue with your child. They are very close knit and have high expectations of the children. I am impressed with school and think that the staff there does not get nearly as much recognition as they deserve. Close Quote
