Summary:
The city of Paris, Arkansas is home to three schools that serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade: Paris Elementary School, Paris Middle School, and Paris High School. These schools are part of the Paris School District, which is ranked 135 out of 250 districts in Arkansas and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
Among the three schools, Paris Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 143 out of 492 Arkansas elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperformed the district and state averages in several academic metrics, including mathematics and science proficiency. Paris Middle School also performed well, ranking 112 out of 324 Arkansas middle schools and excelling in Algebra with 80% of students proficient or better.
However, Paris High School struggled in comparison, with lower proficiency rates than the district and state in most subject areas, particularly in Algebra and Geometry. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and support programs to address the unique challenges faced by the district's predominantly low-income student population, as all three schools had 100% of their students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
