Summary:
The Perryville School District in Arkansas has only one elementary school, Perryville Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. While the school has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, its statewide ranking has declined in recent years, going from 155th out of 492 elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 257th out of 495 in 2024-2025.
Academically, Perryville Elementary School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state averages, with some exceptions in specific grade levels. For instance, the school's 6th-grade Mathematics proficiency rate of 49.2% is higher than the state average of 39.6%, but its 3rd-grade Mathematics proficiency rate of 23.4% is significantly lower than the state average of 39.6%. Additionally, the school has a high free and reduced lunch rate of 63.53%, indicating a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families.
Despite its declining statewide ranking and mixed academic performance, Perryville Elementary School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.1 in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school may need to focus on targeted interventions and support to improve student learning outcomes and address the unique needs of its student population, which includes a significant number of economically disadvantaged students.
