Summary:
The city of Lake Village, Arkansas is home to three schools - Lakeside Elementary School, Lakeside High School, and Lakeside Middle School - all of which are part of the Lakeside School District (Chicot). Unfortunately, the data shows that these schools are consistently underperforming compared to state averages across a range of academic metrics.
None of the three schools in the Lake Village district can be considered standouts, as they all rank in the bottom 30% or lower of their respective school types in Arkansas. Proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, and Science are significantly below state averages at all grade levels. For example, Lakeside Elementary School had only 17.1% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 33.8%. Lakeside High School also struggled, with particularly low proficiency rates in Algebra (3%) and Geometry (0-5%).
Socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the district's challenges, as all three schools have 100% of their students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population. Spending per student is also relatively low, ranging from $10,902 to $12,722 per student. The consistently low performance across the district suggests that targeted interventions and support are needed to address the underlying issues and provide a quality education for the students in this community.
