Wonderview School District

The Wonderview School District in Arkansas operates two schools: Wonderview Elementary School and Wonderview High School. Both schools have consistently underperformed compared to the state average in proficiency rates across multiple subject areas, with Wonderview High School performing significantly lower than the state average.

Wonderview Elementary School is ranked 276 out of 497 Arkansas elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. While the school outperformed the state average in Mathematics proficiency, it fell below the state average in English Language Arts, Reading, and Science. The school also has a relatively high free and reduced lunch rate of 58.3%, indicating a significant population of students from low-income families. In contrast, Wonderview High School is ranked 205 out of 305 Arkansas high schools and also has a 2-star rating, with lower proficiency rates than the state average across all subject areas.

Despite the higher spending per student at Wonderview High School compared to the elementary school, and the very low student-teacher ratios at both schools, the data suggests that the Wonderview School District is facing significant challenges in providing quality education to its students. The consistently low proficiency rates and high rates of students from low-income families suggest that the district may need to re-evaluate its strategies and focus on addressing the root causes of its underperformance.
