Summary:
The 72837 zip code area is home to three schools that span elementary, middle, and high school grades, all part of the Dover School District. While the district as a whole is ranked 53 out of 252 in Arkansas and has a 4-star rating, the individual schools show varying levels of academic performance and standout characteristics.
Dover Elementary School consistently ranks in the top 25% of Arkansas elementary schools, outperforming state and district averages in proficiency across multiple subjects. With a low student-teacher ratio of 16.6, the school's strong academic performance may be attributed to its ability to provide more individualized attention. In contrast, Dover High School has a more mixed academic performance, with some subjects and grade levels exceeding state and district averages, while others fall below.
The data also reveals that Dover Middle School is a standout, ranking in the top 25% of Arkansas middle schools and demonstrating high proficiency rates in core subjects. The school's low student-teacher ratio of 11.4 may contribute to its academic success. However, the higher free and reduced lunch rates at the elementary and middle school levels suggest the need for additional resources and support to address potential socioeconomic challenges faced by students in the district.
