Wayne County Schools

Summary:

The Wayne County Schools district in West Virginia consists of 18 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 15 out of 55 districts in the state and is rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Several schools stand out in the district, including Ceredo-Kenova Elementary, which ranks 52 out of 368 West Virginia elementary schools and is rated 4 stars, and Kellogg Elementary, which ranks 86 out of 368 and is also rated 4 stars. At the middle school level, Ceredo-Kenova Middle School and Buffalo Middle School stand out, ranking 40 and 43 out of 169 middle schools in the state, respectively.

However, the district also faces significant performance gaps, with some schools like Fort Gay Pre K-8 and East Lynn Elementary School having much lower proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the top-performing schools. Additionally, the district is quite racially homogeneous, with most schools having 95% or more white student populations, which may be an area for further exploration.
