Trumann High School also spends $11,155 per student, which is lower than the spending at nearby schools, ranging from $9,403 to $14,449 per student, and has a higher student-teacher ratio of 13.1, compared to nearby schools ranging from 8.6 to 14.3.

The data suggests that Trumann High School is struggling academically and facing significant socioeconomic challenges. The school has consistently underperformed the state average in test scores over the past several years, with its ranking among Arkansas high schools ranging from 172 to 237 out of 290-305 schools. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach that addresses both the academic and resource-related needs of the school and its students, potentially through increased funding, lower student-teacher ratios, and targeted interventions to support the high-poverty student population.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
