Summary

Angie Grant Elementary School in Benton, AR, serves 340 students in grades K-4 and is part of the highly-rated Benton School District, though it faces unique challenges compared to its district peers. The school has a high rate of economic disadvantage, with over 66% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, which is nearly three times higher than nearby Caldwell Elementary School and Mt. View Elementary. This socioeconomic factor is strongly linked to its academic performance, as Angie Grant consistently ranks in the bottom 30% of Arkansas elementary schools, earning a 2-star rating, while other Benton elementary schools like Perrin Elementary School achieve much higher proficiency rates in English, math, and science.

Despite these challenges, there are positive signs. Over the last three years, Angie Grant has shown steady improvement in all core subjects, with English Language Arts proficiency rising from 25.5% to 34.1% and math from 31.0% to 39.5%. However, a notable "4th grade slump" appears, where 3rd graders perform close to state averages, but 4th graders drop significantly below in math and science. This suggests a need for targeted support in upper grades. Interestingly, Angie Grant spends more per student ($13,884) than other Benton elementary schools, yet this investment has not yet closed the achievement gap, indicating that resources alone aren't the solution.

When compared to similar high-poverty schools, Angie Grant performs similarly to Hill Farm Elementary School but underperforms relative to Hurricane Creek Elementary, which achieves higher scores despite comparable poverty levels. This shows that high poverty doesn't have to limit success, and Angie Grant could learn from schools like Hurricane Creek. For parents, the school offers a dedicated environment with a positive upward trend, but it's important to be aware of the performance gap compared to other Benton schools and the need for extra support, especially as students move into 4th grade.
