WILEY FORD PRIMARY SCHOOL is a small, community-oriented public school located in Wiley Ford, West Virginia, serving students in the primary grade levels. As part of the Mineral County School District, the institution focuses on providing a foundational educational experience, emphasizing early literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional development.

The school is deeply integrated into the local Wiley Ford area, often serving as a focal point for families in the region. Because of its size, it maintains a tight-knit campus culture that prioritizes safety, routine, and parental involvement.
