Summary:
The city of Farmington, West Virginia is home to a single public high school, North Marion High School, which serves grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 738 students. The school's student population is predominantly White (95.53%), with a relatively small percentage of minority students.
North Marion High School's academic performance has been mixed in recent years. While its proficiency rates on state assessments are generally higher than the state averages, they are lower than the Marion County Schools district average. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated, ranging from 25th out of 112 high schools in 2023-2024 to 90th out of 112 in 2022-2023, suggesting inconsistent performance compared to other high schools in West Virginia. The school's per-student spending of $12,788 and student-teacher ratio of 16.4 are important factors to consider in relation to its academic outcomes.
The lack of racial diversity at North Marion High School may be an area of concern, as research suggests that diverse learning environments can provide valuable educational and social benefits for students. Additionally, the school's variable academic performance and underperformance compared to the district average indicate potential areas for improvement and further investigation to understand the factors contributing to these trends.
