Summary:
The Mountainburg School District has only one middle school, Mountainburg Middle School Brain Academy, which serves grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 142 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Arkansas middle schools over the past 3 years and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
Mountainburg Middle School Brain Academy's performance on standardized tests is generally below the state average across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates were 31% in English Language Arts (vs. state average of 34.7%), 31% in Reading (vs. 35.3%), 27.5% in Mathematics (vs. 38.7%), 16.2% in Algebra (vs. 30.9%), and 35.7% in Science (vs. 38.1%). The school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 100% in 2023-2024, and a student-teacher ratio of 13.1, which is slightly lower than the state average.
Overall, the data suggests that Mountainburg Middle School Brain Academy is an underperforming school that may need to implement significant improvements to better serve its students and community. The school's consistently low rankings and below-average test scores indicate that it is struggling academically compared to other middle schools in Arkansas, and the school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students may contribute to these challenges.
