While West Milford Elementary School is part of a moderately high-performing district, the school's own performance metrics are mixed compared to state and district averages. Its statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 149th out of 368 elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 191st out of 355 in 2024-2025. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments are generally below the Harrison County Schools and West Virginia averages, particularly in mathematics, where only 36.5% of 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders were proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to 55.6% for the district and 53% for the state.
On a positive note, West Milford Elementary School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.3 to 1, which could be a contributing factor to its performance. However, without knowing the school's current free/reduced lunch rate, it's difficult to assess how socioeconomic factors may be impacting student achievement. Overall, the data suggests that West Milford Elementary School is a relatively average-performing school within its district and the state, with some areas of concern that warrant further investigation and potential intervention.
