Summary

Guy-Perkins High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in the small town of Guy, Arkansas. With around 150 students, the school is part of the Guy-Perkins School District, which is ranked 136 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Guy-Perkins High School has consistently underperformed the state average on standardized tests across all subjects and grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 26.5% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 34.7%. In math, the school fared slightly better, with 43.6% of students proficient or better, but still below the state average of 38.7%. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 71st out of 295 high schools in 2022-2023 (4-star rating) to 154th out of 291 high schools in 2024-2025 (2-star rating), indicating inconsistent academic performance.

One notable factor at Guy-Perkins High School is the extremely high rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 99.33% to 100% in recent years. This suggests a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. However, the school's low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 5.4 to 6.4 in recent years, could be an advantage, as it allows for more individualized attention and support for students. When compared to nearby high schools, such as Clinton High School, Guy-Perkins High School appears to be underperforming academically, indicating that the school faces significant challenges in improving student outcomes.
