Summary:

The city of Gosnell, Arkansas is home to two schools - Gosnell Elementary School and Gosnell High School, both part of the Gosnell School District. While the elementary school consistently outperforms the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics, the high school struggles to meet these benchmarks across most subject areas and grade levels.

In contrast, Gosnell High School has a lower ranking of 186th out of 305 Arkansas high schools and a 2-star rating. This disparity in academic performance between the two schools is notable and may be influenced by factors such as the higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at the elementary school compared to the high school.

The data also reveals differences in resource allocation, with Gosnell High School having a higher per-student spending of $10,350 compared to Gosnell Elementary School's $9,298. Additionally, the high school has a lower student-teacher ratio of 10.8, while the elementary school has a higher ratio of 13.9. These variations in funding and staffing may contribute to the performance gap between the two schools and warrant further investigation to ensure equitable distribution of resources across the district.
