Summary:
The elementary schools located in Tucker County Schools in West Virginia serve students from kindergarten through 8th grade. Based on the available data, the two schools in this district, Tucker Valley Elementary Middle School and Davis Thomas Elementary Middle School, are struggling to provide a high-quality education compared to their peers across the state.
Both schools have very low statewide rankings, placing them in the bottom 20% of West Virginia elementary schools. Their proficiency rates in mathematics and English language arts are consistently lower than the state averages across all grade levels, indicating a systemic issue with student academic performance. Additionally, the schools have a very homogeneous student population, with over 97% of students being white, which may be a contributing factor to the lack of diversity and well-rounded educational experiences.
Despite the low performance, both schools have relatively high per-student spending compared to the state average, and they also have smaller class sizes than the state average. However, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved educational outcomes for the students. The data suggests that the challenges faced by these schools are complex and may require a comprehensive approach to address the underlying issues and improve student achievement.
