Mammoth Spring High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 31st out of 305 high schools in 2023-2024 (5-star rating) to 195th out of 282 high schools in 2021-2022 (2-star rating). The school's performance on standardized tests, such as ATLAS and ACT Aspire, is generally below the state average, with some exceptions. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's 9th-grade students performed better than the state average in English Language Arts (52.9% vs. 32.2%) and Reading (50% vs. 32.6%). Compared to nearby schools like Salem High School and Highland High School, Mammoth Spring High School generally performs worse on standardized tests, particularly in mathematics and science.

Mammoth Spring High School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 4.2 to 5.9 over the past three school years, which is significantly lower than the nearby schools. However, the school has consistently had a 100% free and reduced lunch rate over the past three school years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among its student population. This may contribute to the school's academic challenges and the need for additional resources and support. Despite these challenges, the school's higher spending per student compared to nearby schools suggests that it may have the resources to address these issues and improve student outcomes.

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.
