In contrast, South Charleston Middle School has struggled in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 105th out of 168 schools in 2022-2023 to 151st out of 169 schools in 2023-2024. The school's test scores are also significantly lower than the county and state averages. The small size of WIN Academy at BVCTC, with only 18 students, suggests it may be a specialized or alternative program, but more information is needed to draw any meaningful conclusions about its performance.
