Summary

Mullens Elementary School is a small, rural school in Mullens, WV, serving 162 students in grades PK through 4 within the Wyoming County Schools district. This school has become a standout success story, earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the 70th percentile statewide—a remarkable climb from just 1 star a decade ago.

The most impressive thing about Mullens Elementary is its mathematics program. In the latest assessment, 74.5% of all students scored proficient in math, compared to just 33.5% for the district and 39.4% statewide. That's a 41-point advantage over the district average. Fourth graders are especially strong, with an 86.4% proficiency rate. This puts Mullens ahead of nearby schools like Pineville Elementary School (52.3%) and Glen Fork Elementary & Middle School (48.2%) in the same district, and even rivals Hollywood Elementary in Raleigh County (76.7%). The school also does exceptionally well with students from low socio-economic backgrounds, ranking in the 77th percentile statewide—a sign that the school is effectively closing achievement gaps.

While math is the clear strength, English Language Arts (ELA) is an area for growth. The school's overall ELA proficiency (41.2%) is slightly below the state average (47.6%), with 3rd grade being a particular challenge at 31%. However, there's a very positive trend: by 4th grade, ELA proficiency jumps to 54.6%, and math jumps from 65.5% to 86.4%. This shows students make significant progress during their time here. With a low student-teacher ratio of 11.9 and efficient spending of $12,453 per student—less than many lower-performing schools like Kimball Elementary School ($16,339) and Welch Elementary School ($13,978)—Mullens is a cost-effective model of rural education success.
