Summary

East Lynn Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 127 students in grades PK-5 in East Lynn, West Virginia, which is part of the Wayne County Schools district.

The school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 36th out of 383 West Virginia elementary schools in 2018-2019 to a low of 295th out of 368 in 2022-2023. Currently, the school ranks 205th out of 355 elementary schools in the state, with a 2-star rating. While the school has shown some areas of strength, such as its 4th grade math and ELA proficiency rates exceeding district and state averages, it has also struggled with lower performance in 3rd grade math, 5th grade science, and overall inconsistency in student group performance.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Wayne County Schools district and nearby districts, such as Lincoln County Schools and Cabell County Schools, East Lynn Elementary School's performance is generally lower, with several nearby schools outperforming it on state assessments. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, however, may be a potential strength that could be leveraged to improve academic outcomes with the right strategies and support.
