Best Public Schools in Zip Code 26425


Summary:

The 26425 zip code area in West Virginia is home to two elementary schools - Bruceton School and Rowlesburg School. While both schools serve the same general area, the data reveals a stark contrast in their academic performance, with Bruceton School consistently outperforming the Preston County Schools district and the state of West Virginia averages across various grade levels and subject areas.

Bruceton School has a much larger student enrollment of 621 students compared to just 40 students at Rowlesburg School. This larger size may contribute to Bruceton School's stronger academic performance, as it likely has access to more specialized programs, resources, and opportunities that benefit student learning. Additionally, Bruceton School has a higher statewide ranking, placing in the top third of West Virginia elementary schools, while Rowlesburg School has ranked in the bottom 10% of the state.

The data also raises questions about equity and resource allocation within the Preston County Schools district. Both schools have a very homogeneous student population, with over 98% of students identifying as White, which suggests a lack of diversity and inclusiveness in the educational opportunities in this area. Furthermore, Rowlesburg School spends significantly more per student ($15,322) compared to Bruceton School ($9,487), despite having much lower test scores and a smaller student population, indicating potential inefficiencies or inequities in resource allocation within the district.
