Summary:
The city of Hinton, West Virginia is home to two schools - 6-12 Summers County Comprehensive High School and Hinton Area Elementary, both of which serve students in the Summers County Schools district. Unfortunately, the data analysis reveals that these schools are struggling academically, with test scores and rankings well below state averages.
Neither school stands out as a high-performing institution. 6-12 Summers County Comprehensive High School is ranked 46th out of 112 West Virginia high schools, with only 21.3% of 11th graders proficient or better in math and 47.3% proficient or better in English Language Arts. Hinton Area Elementary fares even worse, ranking 367th out of 368 West Virginia elementary schools, with only 17.7% of 3rd graders proficient or better in math and a mere 5.9% proficient or better in English Language Arts.
The data also reveals a lack of diversity in the student populations, with both schools having a predominantly White student body (over 89%). This raises concerns about equity and access to educational opportunities for minority students in the Hinton area. Additionally, the relatively low spending per student and unfavorable student-teacher ratios at these schools may be contributing factors to their poor academic performance.
