Summary

Mt. View Elementary is a K-4 public school in the Benton School District serving 431 students, and it has rapidly become one of the top-performing elementary schools in the state, climbing from the 76th percentile to the 94th percentile in state rankings over the last two years and earning a 5-star rating.

What truly sets Mt. View apart is its balanced, high-level academic performance across all subjects. In the most recent school year, proficiency rates in English Language Arts (64.6%), Reading (65.9%), Mathematics (67.7%), and Science (60.5%) all significantly exceeded both district and state averages. The school’s improvement in math has been particularly remarkable, jumping from 37.5% proficiency two years ago to 67.7% today—a 30-point increase that suggests a highly effective new curriculum or instructional strategy. Mt. View also outperforms top schools in the nearby Bryant School District, including Bryant Elementary School, despite serving a student population with a much lower poverty rate (22.51% free/reduced lunch) than many of its peers.

Interestingly, Mt. View’s success highlights a stark performance gap within the Benton School District itself. While Mt. View and Caldwell Elementary School are top-tier, 5-star schools, Ringgold Elementary School and Angie Grant Elementary School—located just over a mile away—are struggling 1- and 2-star schools. This divide is closely tied to neighborhood socioeconomic factors, as Ringgold and Angie Grant have free/reduced lunch rates of 62% and 66%, respectively. Notably, Angie Grant actually has the highest per-student spending in the district at $13,884, yet achieves far lower results, suggesting that financial resources alone cannot overcome the deeper challenges these schools face.
