Summary

Lowell Elementary School in Lowell, AR, is a mid-sized PK-5 school within the Rogers School District, serving 451 students with a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.2:1 and a significant portion of students (64%) qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Lowell Elementary stands out for its exceptional mathematics performance, with 60.1% of all students proficient in the 2025-2026 school year—well above the district (53.4%) and state (44.1%) averages. This strength is especially notable in 3rd grade, where 70.6% of students were proficient, outpacing the district by nearly 20 percentage points. The school has shown a remarkable recovery in recent years, climbing from a low point in the 2021-2022 school year to a 4-star rating and 70th percentile rank. Interestingly, Lowell achieves these strong math results with lower per-student spending ($11,567) compared to nearby schools like Elza R. Tucker Elementary School ($16,527), which serves a similar student population but has a higher student-teacher ratio (12.4 vs. 14.2). This suggests efficient use of resources, particularly in math instruction.

A key area for improvement is a notable "4th grade slump," where proficiency drops significantly across all subjects from 3rd to 4th grade—for example, English Language Arts proficiency falls from 51.3% to 38.1%. While this pattern is seen at other district schools like Bonnie Grimes Elementary and Old Wire Elementary, the drop is more pronounced at Lowell. The school's recent upward trend in rankings suggests leadership is capable of addressing this challenge. Overall, Lowell Elementary is a solid, reliable performer in a high-achieving district, with a clear identity as a math-focused school that has demonstrated impressive recovery and efficient resource use.
