Summary

Corning High School is a public high school in Corning, Arkansas, serving 225 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Corning School District, which is ranked 141 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Corning High School consistently underperforms the state average in standardized test scores across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 23.2% of Corning High School students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 34.7%. Similarly, in Algebra, only 2.2% of Corning High School students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 30.9%. The school also has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 65.33% to 72.29% over the past three school years, significantly higher than the state average.

Despite these academic challenges, Corning High School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 4.8 to 5.5 over the past three school years, which is lower than the nearby Marmaduke High School (4.1) and Rector High School (10.1). Additionally, Corning High School's spending per student for the 2018-2019 school year was $10,160, which is higher than the nearby schools of Marmaduke High School ($9,439) and Rector High School ($10,128). However, these potential advantages do not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students.
