Farmington High School ranks 107 th of 305 Arkansas high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Farmington High School is a public high school serving grades 10-12 in Farmington, Arkansas, with a total enrollment of 639 students. The school is part of the Farmington School District, which is ranked 22 out of 252 districts in Arkansas and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Farmington High School's statewide ranking has declined in recent years, going from 36th in 2020-2021 to 107th in 2023-2024, though it still maintains a 3-star rating.

Academically, Farmington High School's performance is generally above the state average but below that of some nearby high-performing schools like Fayetteville High School and Haas Hall Academy. For example, the school's 10th-grade proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are all lower than those of Fayetteville High School and Haas Hall Academy. However, Farmington High School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 7.7 to 8.4 over the past three years, which is lower than the ratios of many nearby schools.

Another positive factor for Farmington High School is the decrease in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, from 33.72% in 2020-2021 to 23.63% in 2022-2023. This is lower than some nearby schools, such as Responsive Educational Solutions Premier High School of Springdale (64.89%) and Greenland High School (66.17%). This suggests an improving socioeconomic profile of the student population, which could have positive implications for academic performance.

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.
