Glen Rose Elementary School consistently performs below the state average in English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, and Science proficiency across all grades. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 38.6% in ELA, 38.6% in Reading, 31.8% in Mathematics, and 41.5% in Science, compared to the state averages of 34.7%, 35.3%, 38.7%, and 38.1%, respectively. The school's performance has been relatively stable over the past few years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 162 to 272 out of around 500 Arkansas elementary schools. Additionally, Glen Rose Elementary has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 53.74% to 60.54% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Hurricane Creek Elementary, Angie Grant Elementary, and Perrin Elementary, Glen Rose Elementary generally performs worse on standardized tests and has a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students. However, the school's spending per student is higher than some of the nearby schools, suggesting that additional funding may not be directly translating into improved academic outcomes. In contrast, Poyen Elementary School, located about 10 miles away, stands out as a high-performing school, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in Arkansas.
