Summary:
The city of Hanover, West Virginia has only one school, Huff Cons Elementary & Middle School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. This school has consistently performed below the state and county averages in academic proficiency, ranking in the bottom quartile of West Virginia elementary schools for the past three years and receiving a 1-out-of-5-star rating.
Huff Cons Elementary & Middle School's student population is overwhelmingly White, with only 0.39% Hispanic students and no other racial or ethnic representation. The school's academic performance is a concern, with math proficiency ranging from 7.1% to 50% across grade levels, and ELA proficiency ranging from 20.8% to 50%. Science proficiency is also low, at 25% for 5th grade and 17.4% for 8th grade. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $12,996, the school's academic outcomes do not reflect this level of investment, suggesting potential inefficiencies or challenges in how resources are being utilized.
While the school serves both elementary and middle school grades, the data indicates the middle school grades may be struggling more than the elementary grades, particularly in math and ELA. This suggests the school may face unique challenges in providing a quality education to its older students. Overall, the data paints a picture of a low-performing school that is facing significant challenges in delivering a quality education to its students, and the lack of diversity in the student population is an additional concern for the school and the broader Wyoming County Schools district.
