Summary:
The Riverview School District in Arkansas has only one high school, Riverview High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. Based on the available data, Riverview High School appears to be a struggling school, ranking 226 out of 305 Arkansas high schools for the 2023-2024 school year and earning a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Riverview High School's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Reading, Algebra, Geometry, and Biology falling well below the state averages. For example, only 25% of Riverview High School students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 33.8%. The school's math proficiency rates are particularly low, with only 2.6% of students proficient or better in Algebra, compared to the state average of 26.8%. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined over time, dropping from 193 out of 282 schools in 2021-2022 to 226 out of 305 schools in 2023-2024.
The data also suggests that Riverview High School serves a population with significant economic challenges, with 65.85% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. While the school spends more per student than the state average, this higher funding has not translated into improved academic outcomes, indicating that simply increasing resources may not be the sole solution to improving the school's performance. Targeted interventions and support, particularly in the areas of math and science, could be beneficial in addressing the school's challenges and helping students succeed.
