Summary

Greenbrier High School in Greenbrier, AR, is a mid-sized school serving 818 students in grades 10-12 and is part of the highly-rated Greenbrier School District, which holds a 5-star rating and ranks in the 96th percentile among Arkansas districts. The school has a strong historical reputation, having been a consistent 5-star school from 2015-2016 through 2022-2023, often ranking in the top 10 in the state. However, recent data shows a notable decline, dropping to a 4-star rating and 66th position for the 2025-2026 school year. This recent decline is a key differentiator from nearby Vilonia High School, which is on an upward trajectory and now ranked 18th, outperforming Greenbrier in every tested subject.

Greenbrier boasts an exceptionally low dropout rate of just 0.1% for the 2024-2025 school year, significantly lower than nearby schools like Vilonia (1.2%) and Conway High School (2.6%). This suggests a highly effective student support system. However, the school presents a "tale of two subjects" in test scores. While it performs well above the state average in English Language Arts and Reading—competitive with top peers—its performance in Geometry (23.1% proficiency) and Biology (20.2%) is critically low, well below the state average and dramatically lower than Vilonia (42.6% and 41.4%, respectively). This extreme disparity suggests the decline in ranking is likely driven by poor performance in these STEM subjects.

Interestingly, the Greenbrier School District as a whole is ranked 10th in the state, but the high school's test scores in Geometry and Biology are drastically lower than the district averages (44.4% and 58.4%, respectively). This implies the district's high ranking is buoyed by its elementary and middle schools, while the high school is an underperformer in these areas. Despite this, Greenbrier's per-student spending is remarkably efficient at $11,729, lower than most nearby schools, indicating a strong return on investment in core subjects. The school's ability to recover from a pandemic-era dropout spike of 2.2% back to 0.1% is a testament to its resilience and student support systems.

Open Quote The Administrators (Assistant Principals) of this school chose to offer to and did beat three high school students twice in one day with a wood board for joining thousands of young people across the country in observing 17 minutes of silence, in support of the Parkland Florida students who lost their lives and who were against gun violence. Not only is this a violation of the 1st amendment rights of Free speech and of peaceful assembly of these young people, but how is this punishment warranted for this first infraction of some school rule? It is shocking enough that physical violence is going on in any 21st century American school, but here it is offered along with detention for something such as this. Apparently hitting students is so commonplace by the Assistant Principal that this is a routine thing. There is no telling how many students are assaulted at this high school every year for even trivial things. An investigation and/or a law suit needs to happen here. Close Quote
