Summary

Glen Fork Elementary & Middle School is a small, rural PK-8 school in Glen Fork, WV, serving 159 students within the Wyoming County Schools district, with a favorable 11.4:1 student-to-teacher ratio that allows for more individualized attention.

The most striking feature of this school is its exceptional middle school program, which dramatically outperforms both the district and state. In 7th grade, 81.3% of students are proficient in English Language Arts—a remarkable 35-point advantage over the state average—and 56.3% are proficient in math, a 20-point edge. The 8th grade shows similar strength with 71.4% ELA proficiency and 57.1% math proficiency, both far exceeding state averages. Science proficiency across all grades is 40.7%, the highest among nearby schools, compared to just 23.1% for the district. This middle school success stands in stark contrast to the elementary grades, where 5th grade ELA proficiency is only 30.8% versus the state's 51%, and 4th grade math lags 10 points behind the state average. The school also spends more per student ($14,029) than most nearby schools, including Fairdale Elementary School ($10,042) and Coal City Elementary ($12,353).

Despite these strengths, the school has experienced a significant decline in its overall state ranking, dropping from the 93rd percentile (5 stars) in 2018-2019 to the 33rd percentile (2 stars) today—a 60-point fall over seven years. However, Glen Fork still outperforms comparable PK-8 schools in the area, including Baileysville Elementary & Middle School, Road Branch Elementary & Middle School, and Herndon Cons Elementary & Middle School, in both ELA and science. The school's challenge lies in replicating its successful middle school model in the elementary grades—if it can apply those same instructional strategies to younger students, it has strong potential to reverse its downward trend and return to its former 5-star status.
