Summary

This school consistently ranks among the top in the state, currently placing in the 93rd percentile, and has earned a 5-star rating for six of the last ten years. With a strong graduation rate of 93.8% and a low dropout rate, it offers a stable and effective learning environment for a diverse student body, where 42.5% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Cabot High School stands out from nearby schools through its combination of top-tier academics and operational efficiency. In core subjects like English and Biology, its proficiency rates significantly exceed state averages and outperform most neighbors, including Sylvan Hills High School and Jacksonville High School. While Vilonia High School matches its ELA scores, Cabot leads in Biology proficiency. Notably, Cabot achieves these results while spending less per student ($11,384) than many lower-performing area schools, such as Sylvan Hills ($14,736), and maintains a higher student-teacher ratio of 17.6. This efficiency makes it a strong value proposition for families.

An interesting finding is the contrast between Cabot High School and its district-mate, Cabot Panther Academy, which serves a different student population with higher economic disadvantage and a lower graduation rate. For Cabot High School, Geometry remains a consistent area for improvement, with a 33.2% proficiency rate that lags behind its other subjects. However, the school has shown impressive resilience post-pandemic, climbing back to its top-20 state ranking and achieving its highest-ever graduation rate. This demonstrates strong leadership and a commitment to continuous improvement, making it a compelling choice for parents seeking a high-quality, efficient education.
