Best Public Schools in Zip Code 25123

Summary:

The zip code 25123 contains only one school, Leon Elementary School, a public elementary school serving grades PK-6. With a total enrollment of 136 students, the school's student population is predominantly White (98.53%) with a small percentage of Hispanic students (1.47%). While the school's low student-teacher ratio of 9.7 suggests a relatively high level of staffing resources, its academic performance is a concern.

Mason County Schools, the district that oversees Leon Elementary School, has seen the school's statewide ranking drop from 177 out of 368 elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 247 out of 368 in 2023-2024, indicating a relative decline in performance compared to other schools in the state. The school's proficiency rates on the West Virginia Assessment are generally below the state and district averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas, with particularly low scores in mathematics and science.

While the school's spending per student for the 2018-2019 school year was $14,028, the lack of information on the school's free and reduced-price lunch rate makes it difficult to assess the adequacy of resources and support for economically disadvantaged students. Overall, the data suggests that Leon Elementary School faces challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, and the district may need to focus on improving the school's academic programs and teaching practices to better serve the community.
