Bradford School District


Summary:

The Bradford School District in Arkansas serves students from elementary through high school, but the academic performance of its two schools, Bradford Elementary School and Bradford High School, is consistently low compared to state averages.

Both Bradford Elementary and Bradford High have significantly lower proficiency rates than the state in English/Reading and Math, with the majority of scores below 20% proficient. The district-wide proficiency rates are also well below the state averages. Additionally, both schools have 100% of their students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population. Despite higher-than-average spending per student and smaller class sizes, the schools are not seeing commensurate improvements in student outcomes, suggesting the district may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation and instructional practices.

The lack of progress or improvement over time is also concerning, as the schools have remained in the bottom quartile of schools in the state for several consecutive years. Overall, the Bradford School District appears to be struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, and the district may need to undertake a comprehensive review of its educational practices and support systems to address these challenges and drive better outcomes for its students.
