Summary:
The city of Warren, Arkansas is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Warren School District. While the district generally underperforms state averages on test scores, Thomas C Brunson Elementary School stands out as a relative bright spot, with the highest proficiency rates in the district, particularly in mathematics and science. In contrast, Warren High School has the lowest test scores, with only 17.2% of 10th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 18% in Reading.
The schools in the Warren School District face significant economic challenges, with all four schools having 100% of their students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This high rate of economic disadvantage may contribute to the district's overall underperformance. However, Warren Middle School and Warren Elementary School also show promise, with their 6th, 7th, 4th, and 5th-grade students exceeding district and state averages in most subject areas.
The data suggests that the Warren School District could benefit from identifying and replicating the successful practices at Thomas C Brunson Elementary School, while also addressing the significant economic challenges faced by the community. Continued focus on improving academic performance, particularly at the high school level, will be crucial for the district's future success.
