Summary:
The Cross County School District in Arkansas has only one elementary school, Cross County Ele Technical Academy, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The school's performance has declined over the past three years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 124th out of 487 Arkansas elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 233rd out of 497 in 2023-2024.
Cross County Ele Technical Academy's proficiency rates on standardized tests, such as ATLAS and ACT Aspire, are generally below the state average in most subject areas and grade levels. In 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 23.5% to 54.7%, with the highest proficiency in 6th grade mathematics. Additionally, the school serves a high-poverty community, with 100% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite the school's challenges, it appears to have adequate funding and resources, with a per-student spending of $10,917 and a student-teacher ratio of 16.2 for the 2022-2023 school year. However, it's unclear how these metrics compare to other schools in the state or district. Overall, the data suggests that Cross County Ele Technical Academy may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and address the academic and demographic challenges it faces.
