Summary:
The Cutter-Morning Star School District in Arkansas has only one elementary school, Cutter-Morning Star Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. The school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages in academic proficiency across multiple subject areas and grade levels, earning a 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other elementary schools in Arkansas.
Cutter-Morning Star Elementary School faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with 70.79% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's per-student spending is slightly above the state average, but its academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates and ACT Aspire assessments, remains below the state averages in most subject areas and grade levels.
While the school's student-teacher ratio of 11.6 is slightly lower than the state average, the data suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement in curriculum, instruction, and targeted interventions to support student learning. Addressing the socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population, potentially through increased funding, community partnerships, or targeted support programs, could also be an area of focus for the school and district to help improve academic outcomes and provide a high-quality education for its students.
