Crossett Elementary School

Summary:

Crossett Elementary School is a public elementary school in Crossett, Arkansas, serving 733 students in grades PK-4. The school is part of the Crossett School District, which is ranked 216 out of 252 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crossett Elementary School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Arkansas elementary schools, with a ranking between 369 and 416 over the past several years, and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is significantly below the state average across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 21.4% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 33.8%, and only 27.1% were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 36.4%. Additionally, Crossett Elementary School has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 66.91% to 67.94% over the past three school years, and a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 16.6 to 19.4.

In comparison, the nearby Hamburg School District, which includes Noble Elementary and Allbritton Elementary, appears to have stronger academic performance than Crossett Elementary School. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Allbritton Elementary had significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts (30.1% vs. 21.4%), Mathematics (38.1% vs. 27.1%), and Science (23% vs. 22.6%) compared to Crossett Elementary. These factors suggest that Crossett Elementary School may be struggling to effectively support student learning, and addressing the challenges it faces could be crucial for improving the school's performance and providing a high-quality education for its students.

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.
