Summary

Omaha High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Omaha, Arkansas, with 186 students enrolled. The school is part of the Omaha School District, which is ranked 152 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Omaha High School faces significant academic challenges, with test scores that generally fall below the state average across subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 24.3% of Omaha High School students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 34.7%. Similarly, their math proficiency rates are significantly lower than the state, with only 23.9% proficient or better across all grades compared to 38.7% statewide. The school also has a very high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 66.13% to 70.97% over the past few years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

While Omaha High School struggles in many areas, it does have a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 2 to 3.8 students per teacher in recent years, which suggests the school may have more resources to provide individualized attention to students. Additionally, the school performs relatively better in Biology and Geometry, with proficiency rates closer to or even exceeding the state averages in some grade levels and years. However, the school's performance lags behind many of the nearby high schools, such as Harrison High School and Bergman High School, which consistently rank among the top schools in the state.
