Summary

Davis Thomas Elementary Middle School is a public school located in Thomas, West Virginia, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 194 students. The school is part of the Tucker County Schools district, which is ranked 51 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of West Virginia elementary schools, with a ranking between 243-303 out of 355-380 schools over the past 10 years. Its performance on state assessments is generally below the state and district averages, and it performs significantly worse than the nearby Tucker Valley Elementary Middle School on both mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency. The school has a high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, and its performance for female and male students is also below average.

Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending compared to Tucker Valley Elementary Middle School, its academic performance remains significantly lower. This suggests that the school may not be effectively allocating its resources to support student learning and achievement, and may need to re-evaluate its strategies to improve student outcomes.
