Slanesville Elementary School

Summary:

Slanesville Elementary School is a public elementary school in Slanesville, West Virginia, serving 183 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Hampshire County Schools district, which is ranked 21 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

Slanesville Elementary School consistently outperforms the Hampshire County Schools district and the state of West Virginia in academic assessments across multiple grade levels and subjects. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school had significantly higher proficiency rates than the district and state in 3rd grade math, 4th grade math, and 3rd grade English Language Arts. This trend of strong academic performance has been consistent over the past several years, with Slanesville ranking among the top 25% of West Virginia elementary schools. The school's student-teacher ratio is relatively low, ranging from 12.2 to 12.7 over the past three school years, and its per-student spending of $10,919 in 2018-2019 was higher than the state average.

However, Slanesville Elementary School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (94.54%) compared to the state and district averages, with a lower percentage of minority students. This lack of racial diversity may be a concern and could impact the educational experiences and perspectives of the students. When compared to the nearby schools in the same district, such as Romney Elementary, Springfield-Green Spring Elementary, and Augusta Elementary, Slanesville Elementary School consistently outperforms them in academic assessments, suggesting that it may be a high-performing outlier within the Hampshire County Schools district.

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.
