Best Public Schools in Zip Code 72760


Summary:

The 72760 zip code area is home to two schools - St. Paul Elementary School and St. Paul High School, both part of the Huntsville School District. While the district is ranked 159 out of 252 in Arkansas and has a 2-star rating, the performance of these two schools is relatively low, with proficiency rates below state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels.

Both St. Paul Elementary and St. Paul High School struggle with low academic performance, with students underperforming compared to their peers in the district and state. This is coupled with high poverty levels, as indicated by the over 70% free and reduced lunch rates at both schools. Despite the higher spending per student at the high school, the academic outcomes do not seem to be significantly better than the elementary school, raising questions about the effective allocation of resources to support student learning.

The small school sizes, with just 151 students at the elementary school and 113 at the high school, may present both advantages and challenges. While the smaller environment can allow for more personalized attention, it may also limit access to diverse course offerings and extracurricular activities. Addressing the systemic challenges faced by these schools will require a comprehensive approach to improve educational outcomes and support the needs of the community.
