Summary:
The Prescott School District in Arkansas has only one high school, Prescott High School, which serves grades 9-12. Based on the available data, Prescott High School is a low-performing school that has been struggling to improve student outcomes over the past few years.
Prescott High School is ranked 242 out of 305 Arkansas high schools for the 2023-2024 school year and has a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores are significantly below the state averages across various subjects and grade levels, with only 20% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and just 4.7% proficient or better in Algebra. This underperformance suggests that students at Prescott High School are struggling academically compared to their peers statewide.
The school's challenges may be related to the high poverty levels of its student population, as indicated by the 100% free and reduced-lunch rate. While the school has a relatively small student-teacher ratio of 6.7, this does not seem to be translating into improved academic performance. The Prescott School District may need to explore additional strategies and resources to support Prescott High School's improvement efforts and help students achieve better academic outcomes.
