Summary:
The Hardy County Schools district in West Virginia is home to three elementary schools: Moorefield Elementary School, East Hardy Elementary School, and Moorefield Intermediate School. These schools serve students from kindergarten through 5th grade and provide a range of educational opportunities in the region.
Among the three schools, Moorefield Intermediate School stands out as the highest-performing, with the best overall test scores and a statewide ranking in the top 40% of elementary schools in West Virginia. In contrast, East Hardy Elementary School lags behind the district and state averages in most subject areas, despite having the lowest student-teacher ratio among the three schools.
The racial diversity of the student populations also varies significantly across the schools. Moorefield Elementary School and Moorefield Intermediate School have more diverse student bodies, while East Hardy Elementary School has a predominantly White student population. Interestingly, the more racially diverse schools appear to have higher overall test scores, challenging the common assumption that diversity in schools is detrimental to academic performance.
