College Hill Harmony Leadership Academy

Summary:

College Hill Harmony Leadership Academy is an elementary school located in Texarkana, Arkansas, serving 439 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Texarkana School District, which is ranked 179 out of 252 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Unfortunately, College Hill Harmony Leadership Academy consistently ranks in the bottom half of Arkansas elementary schools, with proficiency rates in ATLAS/English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, and Science that are significantly lower than the Texarkana School District and Arkansas state averages across all grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 15.3% of students were proficient or better in ATLAS/English Language Arts and Reading, compared to 25.6% and 26.2% for the district, and 33.8% and 34.1% for the state, respectively. The school's performance on ACT Aspire assessments is also below district and state averages.

Interestingly, nearby schools such as Genoa Central Elementary School and North Heights Community School demonstrate that high-quality education is possible in the region, with significantly higher proficiency rates than College Hill Harmony Leadership Academy. Additionally, the school's high percentage of students from low-income families, with 99.32% and 100% receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 and 2021-2022 school years, respectively, may be a significant factor contributing to its academic challenges.

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.
