Summary:
The Green Forest School District in Arkansas has only one middle school, Green Forest Intermed School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 165 out of 324 middle schools in 2024-2025 to 220 out of 335 in 2023-2024. While the school's proficiency rates on standardized tests are generally below the state average, it stands out with significantly higher proficiency in Algebra compared to the Arkansas average.
Green Forest Intermed School has a high percentage of students (77.24%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a predominantly low-income student population. The school's student-teacher ratio of 13.1 is slightly lower than the state average. However, the school's per-student spending for the 2018-2019 school year was $8,759, which is in line with the state average.
The declining performance of Green Forest Intermed School, as measured by its statewide ranking and proficiency rates, is a concern that warrants further investigation. The school's strong performance in Algebra suggests a potential area of strength that could be leveraged to improve overall academic outcomes. Given the high poverty rate among the student population, the school may face unique challenges that require targeted interventions and support to address the needs of its community.
