Summary:
The Warren School District is home to a single middle school, Warren Middle School, which serves 331 students in grades 6 through 8 in Warren, Arkansas.
Warren Middle School is a school on a strong upward trajectory, having climbed from the 24th percentile in state rankings three years ago to the 49th percentile today—a remarkable 25-point improvement. The school’s standout strength is Mathematics, where its overall proficiency rate of 47% exceeds the state average of 44.1%. This is especially impressive given that 99.7% of students are economically disadvantaged, a factor that often correlates with lower test scores. The 7th grade math cohort is a particular powerhouse, with 56.7% proficiency compared to the state’s 44.2%. However, the school’s performance is uneven: it falls below state averages in English Language Arts (36.4% vs. 39.4%), Reading (36.5% vs. 40.4%), and Science (37.8% vs. 44.0%). The school also drives the district’s Algebra success, with an 8th grade Algebra score of 61.6% that far exceeds the district average of 29.9%, indicating it concentrates advanced math learners.
For parents, the key takeaway is that Warren Middle School is a school that is clearly improving and achieving notable success in math despite significant economic challenges. The positive ranking trend and strong math program are encouraging signs. However, the school still has room to grow in literacy and science, where it lags behind state averages. With a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12:1, the school has the foundation to continue its upward climb and address these gaps.
