Reedsville Elementary's weakest performance is in 6th grade Mathematics, where only 44.74% of students scored proficient or better, compared to the state average of 53.55%. The school also struggles with higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates, with 9.2% of students considered chronically absent in the 2022-2023 school year. Additionally, a significant portion of the student population (37.81%) is eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage.

Addressing the challenges related to academic performance, socioeconomic factors, and resource allocation will be crucial for improving the educational outcomes for students in the Reedsville community.
