Summary:
The Green Forest School District in Arkansas has only one high school, Green Forest High School, which serves grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 441 students. While the school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, it generally lags behind the state average on standardized tests, particularly in math and science.
Green Forest High School's statewide ranking has ranged from 136th out of 305 high schools in 2023-2024 (3 out of 5 stars) to 223rd out of 295 high schools in 2022-2023 (1 out of 5 stars).

In Science, Green Forest High School's proficiency rate is 30.6% compared to the Arkansas average of 36.4%. These performance gaps suggest a need for improvement in these subject areas.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 6.3, which is lower than the state average, potentially indicating smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students. However, the school serves a predominantly low-income community, with 67.57% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, which may present unique challenges and require additional resources and support. Overall, the data suggests that Green Forest High School faces some performance issues but also has potential strengths that could be leveraged to improve student outcomes.
