Summary

Mansfield High School is a small, rural school in Mansfield, AR, serving 214 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Mansfield School District.

One of the school's standout features is its exceptionally low student-to-teacher ratio of 4.5:1, the lowest among nearby schools like Greenwood High School (8.4:1) and Booneville High School (8.6:1). This allows for highly personalized attention. Mansfield also excels at keeping students on track, with a graduation rate of 93.7% and a dropout rate of just 0.4%—far better than the state average. The school spends $15,131 per student, which is higher than many peers, including Charleston High School ($11,216) and Lavaca High School ($12,587). Academically, Biology is a clear strength, with 47.1% of 10th graders proficient compared to 35.1% statewide.

However, the school faces challenges. While Biology shines, Algebra proficiency is a significant weakness, with only 9.1% of 9th graders proficient versus 25.3% statewide. Despite its small class sizes and high spending, Mansfield's overall test scores in subjects like English and math trail the state average, suggesting that its resources aren't yet translating into top-tier academic results. For context, Lavaca High School, with a similarly low ratio of 3.5:1, performs better in English (42.1% vs. 31.9%). Mansfield serves a predominantly low-income population, with 66.36% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch, a rate much higher than Greenwood High School (21.9%). The school's state ranking has also been inconsistent, dropping from the 62nd percentile in 2024-2025 to the 48th percentile in 2025-2026. The key opportunity for Mansfield is to leverage its small classes to boost core academic skills, especially in math, to match its success in keeping students in school and graduating.
