Education in West Virginia
Education Landscape
West Virginia serves approximately 241,000 students across 55 county-based school districts and roughly 630 schools. Each of West Virginia's 55 counties constitutes a school district, governed by locally elected boards and supported by Educational Service Cooperatives (ESCs). The West Virginia Department of Education mandates annual teacher evaluations under Policy 5310.
Observation Requirements
Under West Virginia Board of Education Policy 5310, teacher evaluation is mandatory and based primarily on an appraisal of the educator's ability to perform against professional teaching standards. Observation frequency varies by experience: teachers with fewer than three years of experience receive four observations per year, teachers with four to five years receive two observations, and teachers with six or more years complete an annual self-reflection process rather than formal observations.
