Summary:
Mammoth Spring, Arkansas is home to a single elementary school, Mammoth Spring Elementary School, which serves grades PK through 6 with a total enrollment of 274 students and is part of the Mammoth Spring School District.
This school stands out as a high-performing institution in a challenging economic context, with 100% of its students eligible for free or reduced lunch.

The school has also shown a strong upward trajectory, improving its state percentile rank from the 56th percentile to the 66th percentile over three years. A favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.5:1 and a high per-student spending of $14,996 suggest significant investment in a supportive learning environment.
While overall performance is strong, grade-level analysis reveals uneven results.

However, 5th grade is a clear trouble spot, falling below state averages in all subjects, including English Language Arts (33.4% vs. 40.9%) and Mathematics (40.5% vs. 45.0%). The school also saw dramatic year-over-year improvement from 2024-2025 to 2025-2026, with proficiency jumps of over 11 percentage points in Reading and over 9 points in English Language Arts, indicating effective instructional changes or programs.
