Summary:
The 25425 zip code area in West Virginia is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools and 1 middle school. While the schools vary in their performance, one elementary school, C.W. Shipley Elementary, stands out as a high-achieving institution, consistently ranking among the top 30 elementary schools in the state. In contrast, Blue Ridge Elementary appears to be a lower-performing school, ranking in the bottom 10% of West Virginia elementary schools.
The racial makeup of the schools varies, with Harpers Ferry Middle School being the most diverse, while Blue Ridge Elementary is the least diverse. However, the racial demographics do not seem to be strongly correlated with the schools' performance. Interestingly, the spending per student and student-teacher ratios also do not appear to be the primary drivers of school quality, as the top-performing C.W. Shipley Elementary has lower spending and a higher ratio than the lowest-performing Blue Ridge Elementary.
Overall, the analysis highlights the significant variation in school quality and student outcomes within the 25425 zip code area, which is part of the Jefferson County Schools district. Further investigation would be needed to fully understand the root causes of these differences and identify strategies to improve the performance of the lower-performing schools.
