Camden Fairview Middle School

Summary:

Camden Fairview Middle School is a public middle school in Camden, Arkansas, serving 519 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Camden Fairview School District, which is ranked 240 out of 252 school districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's consistent ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Arkansas middle schools over the past 10 years, the academic performance at Camden Fairview Middle School is significantly below the state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, Reading, and Mathematics ranged from 8.1% to 16.2%, compared to the state averages of 32.1% to 37.8%. The school's performance on the ACT Aspire test is also consistently lower than the state and district averages.

The school's high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 99.42% to 100% over the past three school years, is likely a significant factor contributing to the low academic performance, as research has shown a strong correlation between poverty and educational outcomes. While the school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio suggest that resources are being allocated, the academic performance remains poor, raising questions about the effectiveness of the school's resource allocation and the need to examine how resources are being utilized to support student learning.

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.
