Summary:
The Arkadelphia School District has only one high school, Arkadelphia High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school's performance on standardized tests, such as ATLAS/English Language Arts, ATLAS/Reading, ATLAS/Algebra, ATLAS/Geometry, and ATLAS/Biology, is consistently below the state averages across multiple grade levels and school years.
Arkadelphia High School's proficiency rates in these subject areas range from 5% to 57.9%, well below the state averages. The school's performance in ATLAS/Geometry is particularly concerning, with proficiency rates significantly lower than the state. Additionally, the Arkadelphia School District is ranked 150 out of 250 school districts in Arkansas and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.2, and spends $12,858 per student, these factors do not seem to be translating into improved academic performance. The high percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients at Arkadelphia High School (55.05%) suggests that the school may be serving a population of students from low-income families, which could contribute to the school's underperformance. Overall, the data analysis indicates that Arkadelphia High School is underperforming compared to the state averages, and further investigation would be necessary to identify the root causes and develop targeted interventions to improve the school's performance.
