Over the past few years, Park Elementary School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 101st out of 496 Arkansas elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 327th out of 495 in 2024-2025. This decline is reflected in the school's test scores, which are generally lower than the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 70.77% in 2022-2023 to 88.34% in 2023-2024, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

This is higher than the nearby schools, which have student-teacher ratios of 13.4 and 13.9, respectively. Despite the higher spending per student at Park Elementary School, the school's academic performance is lagging behind the nearby schools, suggesting that the school may need to re-evaluate how it allocates its resources to better support student learning and achievement.
