Best Public Schools in New Richmond, WV

Summary:

The city of New Richmond, West Virginia is home to a single public high school, Wyoming County East High School, which serves grades 9-12. With a total enrollment of 473 students, the school's student population is predominantly White (97.67%), with small percentages of other racial groups.

While the school's academic performance has been inconsistent in recent years, with its statewide ranking and rating fluctuating between 2 and 4 out of 5 stars, the overall trend is concerning. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates in Mathematics (12.5%), English Language Arts (37.5%), and Science (21.6%) were all lower than the state averages, indicating that Wyoming County Schools as a district is underperforming compared to other schools in West Virginia.

The school's declining academic performance, with proficiency rates dropping significantly in Mathematics from 19.4% in 2022-2023 to 12.5% in 2023-2024, suggests that there may be underlying issues that need to be addressed. Additionally, the lack of diversity in the student population raises potential equity concerns and may warrant further investigation into the school's efforts to promote inclusivity and support for all students.
