Summary:
The 26201 zip code area is home to 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools in this area serve a predominantly white student population, there is a significant performance gap between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing ones.
The standout schools in this area are Washington District Elementary and Tennerton Elementary, both of which consistently rank among the top elementary schools in the state. These schools have strong test scores, with over 45% of students proficient or better in math and English language arts, well above the state and district averages. In contrast, several other schools in the area struggle, with proficiency rates well below the state averages.
The Upshur County School District, which encompasses all the schools in this data set, is ranked 51st out of 55 school districts in West Virginia and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. This suggests that the district as a whole may be struggling to provide high-quality education to its students, and addressing the performance gaps and ensuring equitable access to resources and opportunities for all students should be a priority.
