Summary

Yellville-Summit Elementary School serves 442 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 4th grade in the small town of Yellville, Arkansas, and is part of the high-performing Yellville Summit School District.

This school stands out for its exceptional performance in Math and Science, significantly outpacing state averages and many nearby schools. For example, 60.6% of students were proficient in Math in the 2025-2026 school year, compared to the state average of 44.1% and nearby Flippin Elementary School (43.2%). Similarly, Science proficiency reached 50.4%, well above the state average of 44%. While its English Language Arts scores are closer to state averages, the school’s strength in STEM subjects creates a unique academic profile. This is especially noteworthy given that the school serves a very high percentage of students from low-income families, with a free/reduced lunch rate consistently above 99%. Despite having larger class sizes (a student-teacher ratio of 19.3) and mid-range per-student spending ($13,283), Yellville-Summit achieves results in Math and Science that rival top-tier districts like Valley Springs School District and Cotter School District.

In comparison to other schools in the area, Yellville-Summit is a clear outlier. While nearby schools like Lead Hill Elementary School and Western Grove Elementary also serve high-poverty populations, they do not match Yellville-Summit’s Math and Science success. The school’s state ranking has fluctuated over the years, but its consistent outperformance in STEM subjects suggests a targeted and effective instructional approach. For parents, this school offers a strong foundation in Math and Science, making it a compelling choice for families prioritizing those subjects, even as it works to strengthen its English and Reading scores.
