Summary

Green Forest Intermed School is a public middle school serving grades 4-8 in Green Forest, Arkansas, with 514 students. The school is part of the Green Forest School District, which is ranked 140 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's efforts, Green Forest Intermed School consistently underperforms the state average on standardized tests across all subjects and grade levels. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts (32.1%), Reading (31.5%), and Mathematics (34.9%) were all below the state averages. The school's statewide ranking has also declined over the years, from 96th out of 275 middle schools in 2014-2015 to 165th out of 324 in 2024-2025, and it is currently rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 71.3% to 79.88% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the nearby Harrison Middle School (55.71%) and Eureka Springs Middle School (57.98%).

However, the school does have some bright spots, such as its performance in Algebra, where 45% of students were proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 30.9%. Nonetheless, the nearby middle schools of Harrison and Eureka Springs significantly outperform Green Forest Intermed School on most academic measures, including test scores, school rankings, and student-teacher ratios. The school's leadership and the Green Forest School District should prioritize developing and implementing strategies to address these issues and improve student outcomes.
