Elementary Schools in Ohio County Schools

Summary:

The Ohio County Schools district in West Virginia is home to 9 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools vary in size, student demographics, academic performance, and other key metrics, with several standout institutions leading the way.

At the top of the district's elementary schools are Ritchie Elementary School, ranked #17 out of 368 schools in West Virginia, and Madison Elementary School, ranked #20. Both schools have earned 5-star ratings and excel in math and English language arts test scores, often outperforming state and district averages. Another high-performing school is Woodsdale Elementary School, which ranks #29 in the state and also boasts a 5-star rating with strong test scores.

While the Ohio County Schools district as a whole appears to be performing well, with all of its elementary schools ranked in the top half of West Virginia, there is significant variation in academic performance within the district. Some schools, like Warwood School and West Liberty Elementary, have lower proficiency rates in certain subject areas, while others, like Ritchie, Madison, and Woodsdale, consistently excel. This suggests that factors beyond just spending per student, which ranges from $12,112 to $17,677 per student, may play a more significant role in driving academic success.
