Putnam County Schools have earned a top honor. Students in the county have earned West Virginia's highest WESTEST scores.
Based on last spring's scores, all but three schools in Putnam County made the grade.
Although the scores are good news for the county, Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum Cindy Daniels says there is more work to be done.
"Ultimately, our charge is that until every student is at mastery or above; then were not going to stop," says Daniels.
About 70% of Putnam County students are currently at mastery level.
