Summary:
The Mingo County Schools district in West Virginia is home to 7 elementary schools, serving students from pre-K through 8th grade. While the district as a whole faces challenges in academic performance, a few standout schools, such as Kermit Pre K8, Matewan Pk8, and Lenore Pk8 School, have consistently outperformed their peers and the state averages in key subject areas.
The data reveals significant performance gaps between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools in the Mingo County Schools district. Kermit Pre K8, Matewan Pk8, and Lenore Pk8 School stand out with strong academic results, often exceeding the district and state averages in math and English language arts proficiency. In contrast, schools like Dingess Elementary School, Burch Pk8, Williamson Pk8, and Gilbert Pk8 struggle to meet the same performance standards.
The district also faces challenges in terms of racial diversity, with the student population across the schools being predominantly white, ranging from 90.7% to 98.82%. This lack of diversity may impact the educational experiences and perspectives within the schools. Additionally, while the per-student spending is relatively consistent across the district, the top-performing schools tend to have lower student-teacher ratios, which could be a contributing factor to their academic success. Addressing these areas of concern could lead to more equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Mingo County Schools district.
