Summary:
The city of Texarkana, Arkansas is home to 12 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 3 high schools, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The data analysis reveals a tale of two school districts in the area: the high-performing Genoa Central School District and the underperforming Texarkana School District.
The Genoa Central School District stands out as a standout performer, with its schools, including Genoa Central Elementary School, Genoa Central Junior High, Gary E. Cobb Middle School, and Genoa Central High School, consistently ranking among the top schools in the state. These schools demonstrate high proficiency rates across various subjects, outperforming the state and district averages.
In contrast, the Texarkana School District, which most of the schools in the data set belong to, generally underperforms the state averages across various subjects and grade levels. This underperformance is particularly evident in schools like Arkansas High School and Edward D. Trice Elementary School, which have relatively low proficiency rates, especially in Mathematics and Science. However, the North Heights Community School, a public magnet elementary school in the Texarkana School District, stands out as a relatively high-performing school within the district.
