Summary:
The El Dorado School District in Arkansas consists of 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district serves a predominantly low-income student population, with all schools reporting very high free and reduced lunch rates.
Among the standout schools in the district, Hugh Goodwin Elementary School consistently performs above the district and state averages across various test subjects and grade levels, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking 38th out of 497 elementary schools in the state. In contrast, Yocum Elementary School struggles to meet state averages, highlighting a stark difference in elementary school performance within the district. At the middle school level, Barton Junior High School has shown improvement, moving from a 1-star to a 3-star rating over the past few years.
The district's only high school, El Dorado High School, has a 3-star rating and its test scores are mixed, with some subjects performing above the district and state averages, while others lag behind. This suggests the high school may be facing challenges in certain areas, which could be an opportunity for the district to identify and address specific areas for improvement.
