Elementary Schools in Watson Chapel School District


Summary:

The Watson Chapel School District in Arkansas is home to two elementary schools: Coleman Elementary School and Edgewood Elementary School. Both schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and face significant academic challenges, with consistently low performance metrics compared to state averages.

According to the data, Coleman Elementary School ranks 427 out of 497 Arkansas elementary schools and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Proficiency rates at Coleman Elementary are significantly below the state averages across all subjects and grade levels, with only 21.6% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 33.8%. Edgewood Elementary School does not have any statewide ranking or performance data available, but the lack of data suggests it is also struggling academically.

Both Coleman Elementary and Edgewood Elementary have 100% of their students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population. Despite the higher-than-average per-student spending, the schools' performance remains poor, raising questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources within the Watson Chapel School District.
