Summary

Glen Rose High School is a public high school located in Malvern, Arkansas, serving 301 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Glen Rose School District, which is ranked 120 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Glen Rose High School faces some academic challenges, as its test scores are generally lower than the state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 23.2% of students were proficient or better in ATLAS/English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 34.7%. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 34.21% to 48.6% over the past few years, suggesting a higher proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. However, the school's student-teacher ratio is relatively low, ranging from 5.2 to 6.6 over the past few years, which could indicate a more personalized learning environment for students.

When comparing Glen Rose High School to nearby schools, some interesting findings emerge. Cutter-Morning Star High School and Malvern High School have similar low test scores and high free/reduced lunch rates, suggesting they may face similar challenges. In contrast, Benton High School and Poyen High School have significantly higher test scores and lower free/reduced lunch rates, indicating they may have more resources and a more advantaged student population. The school's performance has also fluctuated over the years, ranging from a 5-star rating in 2016-2017 to a 2-star rating in 2024-2025, suggesting the need for continued improvement efforts.
