Summary:
The Lawrence County School District in Arkansas has only one elementary school, Walnut Ridge Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. Based on the available data, Walnut Ridge Elementary does not appear to be a standout school within the district or the state of Arkansas.
Walnut Ridge Elementary School's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is consistently below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. The school's 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger and its ranking of 348 out of 497 Arkansas elementary schools further indicate that it is not a high-performing institution. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which is often associated with lower academic achievement.
The school's per-student spending is slightly above the national average but below the state average, and its student-teacher ratio is slightly higher than the national average. These factors suggest that the school may not have adequate resources or class sizes to effectively support student learning and address the needs of its student population. To improve student outcomes, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions, allocate additional resources, and explore strategies to address the unique challenges faced by the school.
