Summary

Lonoke High School is a mid-sized public school in Lonoke, AR, serving 484 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Lonoke School District, which has a 2-star rating and ranks in the lower half of Arkansas districts.

One of the school's most notable strengths is its exceptional performance in Biology, where 50.5% of students are proficient—well above the state average of 42.7% and competitive with higher-ranked schools like Cabot High School (51.5%). However, this success is not mirrored in math: only 16% of students are proficient in Geometry, a significant weakness that is 10.4 percentage points below the state average. The school also boasts a very favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 8.5:1, much lower than Cabot High School's 17.6:1, suggesting potential for personalized attention. On a positive trajectory, the graduation rate has climbed from 80% to 91.4% over the past five years, now exceeding the state average, while the dropout rate has dropped to just 1.6%—lower than nearby Sylvan Hills High School (3.5%) and Jacksonville High School (6.0%).

Overall, Lonoke High School presents a mixed picture: it excels in Biology and has made impressive gains in keeping students in school, but struggles in math, particularly Geometry. Its performance is most comparable to Sylvan Hills High School and Cabot Panther Academy, though it outperforms both in Biology and has a better graduation rate than Cabot Panther Academy (91.4% vs. 78.1%). The school's low student-to-teacher ratio is a resource that could be leveraged to improve math outcomes, but for now, parents should note the stark contrast between its science strength and math challenges.
