Summary

Arthur I Boreman Elementary School in Middlebourne, WV, serves 273 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of Tyler County Schools, and it has become one of the top-performing elementary schools in the state.

This school truly shines in mathematics. With a 70.8% math proficiency rate, Arthur I Boreman outperforms the state average by more than 31 percentage points and leads its district by 23 points. In 5th grade math specifically, 76.3% of students are proficient compared to just 44% statewide. The school also does very well in English Language Arts, with 60.8% proficiency—13 points above the state average. What makes this even more impressive is how the school supports students from low socio-economic backgrounds. Arthur I Boreman ranks in the 90th percentile statewide for this group, earning a 5-star rating that is actually stronger than its overall performance. This tells parents that the school is especially effective at helping all students succeed, regardless of their circumstances.

Still, the overall picture is one of a school that is doing remarkable things for its students.
