Summary

Hall High School - West Soi is a public high school in Little Rock, AR, serving 495 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Little Rock School District. The school is currently in a state of crisis, with its state ranking plummeting from the 47th percentile (2 stars) in the 2023-2024 school year to the 6th percentile (0 stars) for 2025-2026, a catastrophic decline that sets it apart from all nearby schools.

Academic performance at Hall High School - West Soi is alarmingly low. Proficiency rates on the ATLAS exam are dramatically below district and state averages: just 10.1% of students are proficient in English Language Arts, compared to 39.4% statewide, and only 5.7% are proficient in Geometry versus 26.4% statewide. These scores are the lowest among all comparable traditional public high schools in the area. For context, Joe T. Robinson High School, located just 2.58 miles away, achieves proficiency rates 3-5 times higher in core subjects. The school's dropout rate has also been rising, from 1.8% in 2022-2023 to 3.4% in 2024-2025, contrasting sharply with the 0.2% rate at Maumelle Charter High School.

Perhaps most concerning is the school's spending paradox. Hall High School - West Soi spends a very high $22,226 per student, nearly double the $12,051 spent at high-performing Maumelle Charter High School and significantly more than the $17,023 at Parkview Magnet High School. This suggests that financial resources are not being effectively translated into student achievement, pointing to potential issues with curriculum, instruction quality, or school culture. The school's performance in 2023-2024, when it actually exceeded district averages in ELA (30%) and Biology (32.4%), shows it is capable of better results, making the recent two-year collapse even more alarming and worthy of urgent investigation.
