Best Public Schools in East Lynn, WV


Summary:

The city of East Lynn, West Virginia is home to a single school, East Lynn Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through 5th grade. While the school has some areas of strength, it has consistently underperformed compared to the broader Wayne County Schools district and the state of West Virginia in terms of academic proficiency.

East Lynn Elementary has an enrollment of 134 students, the vast majority of whom (99.25%) are White. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with higher proficiency rates than the county and state in Math for grades 3-5 and 3rd grade English Language Arts in the 2023-2024 school year. However, the school's proficiency rates were lower than the county and state in 4th and 5th grade ELA and 5th grade Science. This inconsistent performance is reflected in the school's declining rankings, from 229th out of 375 West Virginia elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 295th out of 368 in 2022-2023.

Despite relatively high spending per student ($13,760) and a low student-teacher ratio (12.1), East Lynn Elementary has struggled to translate these resources into strong academic outcomes for its students. The school's lack of diversity may be a contributing factor, as research has shown that diverse learning environments can benefit student achievement. Moving forward, the school and district will need to identify and address the root causes of the school's underperformance in order to better serve the students and community of East Lynn.
