Summary:
The Midland School District in Arkansas has only one elementary school, Midland Elementary School, which serves students from prekindergarten through 6th grade. The school's performance on standardized tests has generally been below the state average, and its overall ranking among Arkansas elementary schools has declined in recent years.
Midland Elementary School's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, and Science are all below the state average for the 2024-2025 school year. The school's performance has even declined in some areas, such as 3rd grade English Language Arts, where the proficiency rate dropped from 20% in 2023-2024 to 39.4% in 2024-2025. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 89.3% in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating that the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges.
Despite the school's higher per-student spending of $12,571 for the 2018-2019 school year, which is above the state average, its performance remains below the state and district averages. This raises questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and utilization. Overall, the data suggests that Midland Elementary School is facing challenges in terms of academic performance and student outcomes, and may require targeted interventions and improvements to better serve its students.
