Summary:
The Nettleton School District in Arkansas has one middle school, Nettleton Junior High School, which serves grades 6-8. The school has consistently underperformed compared to the state average on standardized tests across multiple subject areas and grade levels, placing it in the bottom 20% of Arkansas middle schools over the past three school years.
Nettleton Junior High School has 572 students and a student-teacher ratio of 12:1. The school's spending per student for the 2018-2019 school year was $9,235, and in the 2023-2024 school year, 100% of the school's students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The school's performance on ATLAS/English Language Arts, ATLAS/Reading, ATLAS/Mathematics, and ATLAS/Science tests is consistently below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from 17.2% to 25% for all grades. However, the school's performance on ATLAS/Algebra is an exception, with 95% of students proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 66.7%.
The data suggests that Nettleton Junior High School is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The school's consistently low performance on standardized tests, high poverty rates, and declining statewide ranking are all areas of concern that the district and school leadership should address to improve student outcomes.
