Wirt County Schools

The Wirt County Schools district in West Virginia consists of three schools: Wirt County Primary Center, Wirt County High School, and Wirt County Middle School. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with the primary center and middle school standing out for their strong academic performance, consistently outperforming the state averages on state assessments.

The Wirt County Primary Center is a standout, with 3rd-grade math proficiency rates significantly above the state average (65.6% vs. 53.2% in 2023-2024) and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The Wirt County Middle School also performs well, outperforming the state average on state assessments across multiple grade levels and subject areas, particularly in math and English language arts, and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the Wirt County High School maintains a respectable performance, it lags behind the other two schools, with 11th-grade math proficiency rates of 12.1% compared to the state average of 17.9% in 2023-2024. The district's spending per student and student-teacher ratios are relatively consistent across the three schools, suggesting a similar level of resources. However, the lack of racial diversity in the student population could be an area of focus for the district to address.
