Summary:
The city of Brockwell, Arkansas is home to three public schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Izard County Cons. Elementary School, Izard County Cons. High School, and Izard County Cons Middle School. These schools are part of the Izard County Consolidated School District, which is ranked 148 out of 252 districts in the state and has an overall rating of 2 out of 5 stars.
While the high school stands out with an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 3.8, the elementary school has the highest spending per student at $10,330. The middle school has seen some positive momentum, improving from a 1-star to a 3-star rating over the past three years. However, the district as a whole faces challenges, with all three schools performing below the state average on standardized tests, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 68.65% to 73.33%, suggest the student population is predominantly from low-income households, which may contribute to the academic performance disparities observed across the schools.
Overall, the data reveals a school district that is struggling to provide consistent, high-quality education across its three schools. While there are some bright spots, such as the middle school's improvement and the high school's low student-teacher ratio, the district as a whole has significant work to do to address the academic achievement gaps and ensure all students in Brockwell receive a strong educational foundation.
