Summary:
The Two Rivers School District in Arkansas has only one elementary school, Two Rivers Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school's academic performance is significantly below the state average, ranking 380 out of 495 elementary schools in Arkansas for the 2024-2025 school year and receiving a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Two Rivers Elementary School's proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, and Science range from 11.4% to 44.9% proficient or better, compared to the state averages of 34.7% to 43.1%. This low academic performance has been consistent over the past three school years, with no significant improvement observed. The school's high percentage of students (100%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch suggests a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may contribute to the academic challenges.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.8, its per-student spending of $10,705 for the 2018-2019 school year, which is higher than the state average, does not appear to be sufficient to address the school's academic struggles. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources within the school, and further investigation may be needed to understand how the school is using its funding and whether it is being directed towards the most impactful interventions and support for students.
