Summary:
The city of Augusta, Arkansas has only one public high school, Augusta High School, which serves grades 7-12 with 151 students. The school is part of the Augusta School District, which is ranked 222 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.
Augusta High School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20-25% of high schools in Arkansas over the past 3 years, with a 1 out of 5 star rating. The school's test scores are well below the state averages across all subject areas, including English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, Algebra, Geometry, and Science. Despite the low performance, the school district spends a relatively high amount per student ($13,779) and has a very low student-teacher ratio (3.4:1).
The school serves a high-poverty student population, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This likely contributes to the school's academic challenges, though further analysis of the broader educational system and community factors in Augusta would be needed to fully understand the school's position and potential solutions.
