Dermott School District

The Dermott School District in Arkansas operates two schools - Dermott Elementary School and Dermott High School. Both schools are performing significantly below the state average on academic measures, with very low proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Math, and Science. The district as a whole is ranked 234 out of 252 districts in Arkansas and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Dermott Elementary School and Dermott High School are both ranked in the bottom half of their respective school types in the state, with Dermott Elementary ranked 404 out of 497 elementary schools and Dermott High ranked 290 out of 305 high schools. Both schools have a very high percentage of students (100%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Despite the higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratios, the schools in the Dermott School District are still struggling to achieve academic success.

The consistently low academic performance, high levels of economic disadvantage, and lack of improvement over time suggest that the Dermott School District may need to implement comprehensive, evidence-based strategies to address the root causes of its struggles and support the success of all students. The district's rankings and ratings have remained stagnant or even declined over the past few years, indicating a lack of progress in improving student outcomes.
