Summary

White Hall High School is a public high school in White Hall, Arkansas, serving 975 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the White Hall School District, which is ranked 139 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While White Hall High School previously ranked as high as 60th out of 282 Arkansas high schools in 2018-2019, its performance has declined in recent years, dropping to 214th out of 291 in 2024-2025. The school's proficiency rates on standardized tests like ATLAS and ACT Aspire are generally below state averages across subjects and grade levels. In comparison, the nearby Sheridan High School consistently outperforms White Hall High School on these academic measures.

One factor that may contribute to White Hall High School's academic struggles is its relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 45.15% to 52.63% over the past few years. This is significantly higher than the 35.34% rate at Sheridan High School in 2023-2024. Despite the higher per-student spending at White Hall High School compared to Sheridan High School, the school's student-teacher ratio has increased, suggesting resource constraints or staffing challenges. Addressing these socioeconomic and resource-related factors could be key to improving student outcomes at White Hall High School.
