Summary:
The city of Gilbert, West Virginia is home to a single school, Gilbert Pk8, which serves grades PK-8 and has a total enrollment of 425 students. The school is part of the Mingo County Schools district, which is ranked 38 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Gilbert Pk8 has consistently ranked in the bottom third of West Virginia elementary schools, ranking 312th out of 368 schools in the 2023-2024 school year and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is generally lower than the district and state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels, including mathematics, English Language Arts, and science proficiency. Additionally, the school has a highly homogeneous student population, with over 98% of students identifying as white, which may be a factor in its performance and could indicate a need for more inclusive and culturally responsive teaching practices.
Despite the school's high spending per student of $11,460 in the 2018-2019 school year, the consistently low academic proficiency rates and rankings suggest that Gilbert Pk8 may be facing challenges in effectively allocating resources to support student learning and achievement. The data highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to help improve student outcomes at the school, as well as the potential for the implementation of more inclusive and effective teaching practices to address the school's performance and diversity challenges.
