Middle Creek Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in West Virginia, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's students significantly outperform state and district averages in both Mathematics and English Language Arts assessments across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, 81.8% of 3rd graders, 71% of 4th graders, and 56% of 5th graders were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 53.2%, 47.6%, and 39.1%, respectively.

While Middle Creek Elementary's academic excellence is impressive, the school has a significantly higher percentage of white students (90.99%) compared to the state and district, suggesting a lack of diversity in the student population.

This indicates the school's ability to effectively support the academic needs of these populations, which could provide valuable insights for the district to apply to other student groups.

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.
