Summary:
The Gosnell School District in Arkansas contains a single high school, Gosnell High School, which serves grades 9-12. Based on the available data, Gosnell High School does not appear to be a standout performer among Arkansas high schools, with a consistent middle-to-lower ranking in the state and below-average proficiency rates on standardized tests.
Gosnell High School's statewide ranking has remained in the range of 185-186 out of 291-305 Arkansas high schools over the past few years, earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's performance on ATLAS assessments is generally below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from around 25% to 50% across different subject areas and grade levels. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 73.27% in the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting the school may be serving a population with significant socioeconomic challenges.
While the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.3 and per-student spending of $10,350 for the 2018-2019 school year indicate that resources are being allocated effectively, these factors do not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The data highlights opportunities for Gosnell High School to focus on improving student achievement, particularly in core subject areas, and addressing the socioeconomic factors that may be contributing to the school's underperformance.
