Victory Elementary School

Summary:

Victory Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Clarksburg, West Virginia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 389 students. The school is part of the Harrison County Schools district, which is ranked 19 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Victory Elementary has a significantly higher percentage of white students (91.26%) compared to the state average and nearby schools, its academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on state assessments, is generally lower than the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 3rd grade math, Victory Elementary had a 52% proficiency rate, compared to 50.3% for the district and 53.2% for the state. Additionally, the school ranks lower than other schools in the state for specific student subgroups, such as female students (279 out of 316) and male students (232 out of 325). Victory Elementary also ranks higher for special education students (134 out of 183) and lower for students of low socioeconomic status (268 out of 336) compared to other schools in the state.

Interestingly, Victory Elementary's statewide ranking has dropped from 283 out of 368 schools in 2023-2024 to 1 out of 5 stars, indicating a decline in performance over time. Nearby schools, such as Lost Creek Elementary and Simpson Elementary, generally outperform Victory Elementary in academic proficiency rates and statewide rankings, despite being part of the same district. The lower ranking for low socioeconomic status students at Victory Elementary suggests that the school may face challenges in addressing the needs of this student population, which could be impacting overall academic performance. Additionally, the significant racial imbalance at Victory Elementary may warrant further investigation into potential equity and access issues.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
