Summary

Vienna Elementary School in Vienna, WV, serves 288 students from Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of the Wood County Schools district, which ranks in the top 11% of districts statewide.

This school is a strong academic performer, with 61.2% of students proficient in math and 67.2% proficient in English Language Arts—both well above district and state averages. What really sets Vienna Elementary apart is its exceptional work with students from low socio-economic backgrounds. The school ranks in the top 6% statewide for this group, a remarkable achievement that has improved dramatically over the past three years. In ELA, the school shows consistent strength across grades, with 4th and 5th graders particularly excelling. Compared to nearby schools, Vienna Elementary outperforms Fairplains Elementary School, Franklin Elementary Center, and Madison Elementary School by significant margins, while ranking just behind top-tier schools like Criss Elementary School and Greenmont Elementary School.

There are a couple of areas parents should know about. Most notably, 5th grade math proficiency drops to 39.2%—the only subject and grade where the school falls below district and state averages. This is puzzling because the same group of students scored 78.1% in 4th grade math the year before, suggesting a possible transition or curriculum issue. Science scores have also been volatile, though they showed recovery in the most recent year. Additionally, the school's Special Education students have struggled recently, with rankings dropping significantly from a high of 21st statewide in 2018-2019 to the bottom third in recent years. On the positive side, Vienna Elementary uses its resources efficiently—spending about $13,036 per student while achieving better results than schools spending thousands more per student. The school has also shown resilience, rebounding from a 113th place ranking two years ago to 61st place today, suggesting strong institutional practices that can weather challenges.
