Summary

Mammoth Spring High School is a small, rural school in Mammoth Spring, Arkansas, serving 198 students in grades 7 through 12, where every student qualifies for free or reduced lunch—a 100% economic disadvantage rate that sets it apart from nearby schools like Salem High School (59.57%) and Highland High School.

The school’s standout feature is its incredibly low student-to-teacher ratio of 3.4:1, far lower than Salem (5.3:1) and Highland (7.3:1), which means your child will get a lot of individual attention. This is backed by high per-student spending of $15,102, more than both Salem ($12,075) and Highland ($14,544). However, academic performance is a mixed bag: while the school excels in Algebra (40.7% proficient, above the state average of 36.9%) and Biology (38.9% proficient), it struggles in Geometry (21.6% proficient) and Reading (30.2% proficient, well below the state average of 40.4%). State rankings have been volatile, jumping from 195th in 2021-2022 to 31st in 2023-2024, then dropping to 121st in 2025-2026—a pattern that contrasts with Salem’s more consistent top-40 performance.

On the positive side, the school keeps students on track with a strong graduation rate of 91.6% (above the state average of 88.2%) and an exceptionally low dropout rate of 0.5%. This suggests that despite ups and downs in test scores, the school is effective at supporting students through to graduation. The Mammoth Spring School District holds a 3-star rating, and while the school’s small size can lead to year-to-year swings in performance, the personalized environment and high investment in resources make it a place where students can thrive with the right support.
