Summary

Crossett Elementary School in Crossett, AR, serves 699 students from Pre-K through 4th grade in a high-poverty community where about 68% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school has historically ranked in the bottom 20% of Arkansas elementary schools, but the most recent data from the 2025-2026 school year shows a dramatic turnaround, with test scores surging across all subjects and the school achieving its highest state ranking in a decade.

The most striking improvement is in English Language Arts, where proficiency jumped from 19% to 33.3%—a 75% increase—while math rose from 27.9% to 40% and science from 24.4% to 31.4%. This upward trend now positions Crossett Elementary ahead of nearby Allbritton Elementary (in the Hamburg School District) in every subject for all grades, a reversal from the previous year. Math is a particular strength, with 4th graders scoring 40.2%, close to the state average of 47% and higher than Allbritton's 4th graders at 44.8%. However, 4th-grade science remains a weak spot at 27.4%, well below the state average of 44.4%.

Crossett Elementary also stands out for its cost-effectiveness, spending $12,996 per student compared to $15,956 at nearby Noble Elementary (also in the Hamburg School District), while achieving better academic results. Since the percentage of students on free/reduced lunch has remained stable at about 68% for three years, the recent surge in performance is likely due to changes in school practices, leadership, or teaching methods. Within the Crossett School District, Crossett Elementary is the strongest performing school, driving the district's overall scores upward.
