Summary

Stagecoach Elementary School in Cabot, AR, is a K-4 school with 481 students that is part of the highly-rated Cabot School District, consistently earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the top 20-30% of Arkansas elementary schools.

Stagecoach stands out for its exceptional math performance, with 69% of students proficient in math—nearly 10 points higher than the district average and 25 points above the state average. This is the highest math proficiency rate among comparable elementary schools in the district, surpassing even Mountain Springs Elementary School in 4th grade (70.2% vs. 72.6%) and significantly outperforming nearby schools like Ward Central Elementary (59.6%) and Westside Elementary School (54.1%). The school achieves these top-tier results while spending significantly less per student ($11,537) than peers with similar or lower performance, such as Central Elementary School ($14,251) and Magness Creek Elementary ($14,441), demonstrating impressive fiscal efficiency.

A key area for focus is the "4th grade slump," where ELA and Science proficiency drops dramatically from 3rd to 4th grade—3rd graders scored 63.5% proficient in ELA compared to 48.1% in 4th grade, and Science dropped from 60.3% to 47.2%. These 4th-grade scores are actually below the district average (53% and 57.8%, respectively), suggesting the transition to more complex analytical reading and scientific reasoning is a hurdle. This contrasts with Eastside Elementary School, which sees a rise in ELA scores from 3rd to 4th grade (56.7% to 66.6%). Stagecoach has shown strong leadership, recovering from a 3-star rating in 2017-2018 to maintain 4-star status ever since, and benefits from being in a district where all schools perform well above the state average—a stark contrast to Jacksonville Elementary School in the Jacksonville North Pulaski School District, which ranks near the bottom statewide.
