Pleasants County Schools

Summary:

The Pleasants County Schools district in West Virginia consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data analysis reveals a mix of high-performing and struggling schools within the district, with St. Marys High School and Belmont Elementary School standing out as the top performers, while Pleasants County Middle School faces declining performance.

St. Marys High School has maintained a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating a stable and high-performing school. The school's English Language Arts proficiency rates have been consistently above the district and state averages, suggesting a strong focus on language arts education. In contrast, Pleasants County Middle School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and its mathematics proficiency rates have been consistently below the district and state averages, which may be an area of concern.

Belmont Elementary School stands out as the top-performing elementary school in the district, outperforming St. Marys Elementary School in both mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency. However, the district as a whole lacks racial diversity, with the student population being predominantly white, which may limit the exposure of students to different cultures and perspectives.
