Summary:
The city of Floral, Arkansas has only one public elementary school, Midland Elementary School, which serves grades K-6 and is part of the Midland School District. The district is ranked 157 out of 250 school districts in Arkansas and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
Midland Elementary School's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates in core subject areas, is consistently lower than the state-wide averages for Arkansas. For the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates range from 20% to 39.4% across different grade levels and subject areas, compared to the state-wide averages of 34.7% to 43.1%. However, the school's performance has shown some improvement over the past few years, with proficiency rates increasing in certain subject areas and grade levels.
The school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 89.3% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. Despite this, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.2, suggesting that it may have the resources to provide more individualized attention and support to students. Addressing the underlying factors that contribute to the school's academic challenges could be an important focus for the district and the school's leadership.
