Summary:
The 25521 zip code in West Virginia has only one school, Duval Pk-8, which serves grades PK-8 and has an enrollment of 319 students. The school is part of the Lincoln County Schools district, which is ranked 47 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Duval Pk-8 has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of West Virginia elementary schools for the past three school years, with rankings of 360 out of 368 in 2022-2023, 368 out of 368 in 2023-2024, and 347 out of 355 in 2024-2025. The school's test scores are significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 0% of 3rd graders proficient or better in math in 2024-2025, compared to 35.3% in the district and 53% statewide.
Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.6 to 1 and spending $12,477 per student, which is higher than the national average, Duval Pk-8 is struggling to improve student outcomes. This suggests that factors beyond just resources and staffing may be contributing to the school's poor performance, and a comprehensive, data-driven approach may be necessary to address the root causes of the school's underperformance and drive meaningful improvements in student learning and achievement.
