Summary:
The Calhoun County Schools district in West Virginia consists of 3 schools, including 2 elementary schools and 1 middle/high school. The data analysis reveals that the two elementary schools, Pleasant Hill School and Arnoldsburg School, are the standout performers in the district, with higher test scores, better ratings, and lower student-teacher ratios compared to the Calhoun Middle/High School.
Pleasant Hill School is the top-performing school in the district, ranking 75th out of 368 West Virginia elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state averages in math and English language arts proficiency for 3rd and 4th grades, and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10:1. Arnoldsburg School also shows promising results, ranking 193rd out of 368 West Virginia elementary schools and outperforming the district and state in 4th-grade math proficiency.
In contrast, Calhoun Middle/High School appears to be the weakest performer, with relatively low proficiency rates in math, English language arts, and science compared to the district and state averages. The school also has a higher student-teacher ratio of 13.7:1. The significant differences in spending per student between the schools, with the higher-spending elementary schools potentially having more resources and support for their students, may be a contributing factor to the performance disparities. Overall, the Calhoun County Schools district, ranked 39th out of 55 in West Virginia and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, suggests room for improvement in the district's educational outcomes.
