Summary:
The Sloan-Hendrix School District in Arkansas operates two schools: Sloan-Hendrix Elementary School and Sloan-Hendrix High School. Both schools are performing below the state average on most academic measures, with the high school particularly struggling in mathematics and science.
Sloan-Hendrix Elementary School is ranked 251 out of 497 Arkansas elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 68.86%, suggesting a predominantly low-income student population. Sloan-Hendrix High School is ranked 165 out of 305 Arkansas high schools and also has a 2-star rating, with a 62.19% free and reduced-price lunch rate.
Despite the schools' below-average performance, the per-student spending and student-teacher ratios are only slightly below the state average, indicating that resource allocation may not be the primary driver of the academic challenges. The consistent underperformance and lack of significant improvement over the years suggest a need for comprehensive interventions to address the root causes of the district's educational struggles.
