Rivercrest School District


Summary:

The Rivercrest School District in Arkansas serves students from elementary through high school, with three schools in the district: Rivercrest Elementary School, Academies At Rivercrest High School, and Rivercrest Junior High Prep Academy. The data reveals stark differences in academic performance across these schools, with Rivercrest Elementary School standing out as the highest-performing, while the secondary schools struggle to match that level of achievement.

Rivercrest Elementary School outperforms the district and state averages in most subject areas, particularly in the upper elementary grades. In contrast, Academies At Rivercrest High School and Rivercrest Junior High Prep Academy both underperform the district and state averages across most subject areas and grade levels. Despite the relatively high spending per student at Rivercrest Elementary School and Academies At Rivercrest High School, this does not necessarily translate to higher academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just funding, such as instructional practices, school leadership, and resource allocation, may play a significant role in driving student outcomes.

Interestingly, all three schools in the Rivercrest School District have a 100% free/reduced lunch rate, indicating a high-poverty student population. This high-poverty context likely presents unique challenges and resource needs for the district and its schools. Additionally, the very low student-teacher ratio of 5.1 at Academies At Rivercrest High School may indicate a focus on personalized instruction and support, but this small class size does not appear to be translating into improved academic performance, suggesting that other factors, such as curriculum, teacher quality, or school culture, may be more influential.
