Melbourne School District


Summary:

The Melbourne School District in Arkansas is home to two schools: Melbourne Elementary School and Melbourne High School. The district has a strong focus on academic excellence, with Melbourne High School consistently ranking among the top high schools in the state.

Melbourne High School stands out as a top performer, with a statewide ranking of 15 out of 305 high schools and a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school excels in standardized tests, particularly in English Language Arts and Science, where over 58% of 10th-grade students scored proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average. Melbourne Elementary School also performs well, with 52.7% of students scoring proficient or better in Mathematics, surpassing the state average of 36.4%.

Both schools in the district invest heavily in their students, with spending per student exceeding the state average. Additionally, the schools maintain low student-teacher ratios, which likely contribute to their academic success. However, the district faces the challenge of supporting a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with over 40% of students at both schools receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Overall, the Melbourne School District is home to high-performing schools that are committed to providing a quality education to their students.
