Winfield Elementary

Summary:

Winfield Elementary is a public elementary school in Winfield, West Virginia, serving 509 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Putnam County Schools district, which is ranked 1 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating.

Winfield Elementary consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in West Virginia, with students performing significantly better than the state average in mathematics, English language arts, and science assessments. For example, in 2023-2024, 63.9% of 3rd graders, 75.6% of 4th graders, and 61.3% of 5th graders at Winfield Elementary scored proficient or better in mathematics, compared to the state averages of 53.2%, 47.6%, and 39.1%, respectively. However, the school has a predominantly white student population, with only 0.98% African American, 0.59% Hispanic, and 0.39% Asian students. Additionally, Winfield Elementary has a lower percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch compared to the state average, indicating a relatively higher socioeconomic status of the student population.

Winfield Elementary's low student-teacher ratio of 14.5 students per teacher, compared to the state average of 15.1, suggests that the school is able to allocate resources effectively to provide a more personalized learning environment for its students. This may be a contributing factor to the school's academic success, as smaller class sizes have been linked to improved student outcomes. While Winfield Elementary's consistent academic excellence is commendable, the lack of racial diversity and potential socioeconomic advantages may be areas for further exploration and consideration.

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.
