Summary:
The Mountainburg School District has only one middle school, Mountainburg Middle School Brain Academy, which serves grades 6-8. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Arkansas middle schools over the past 3 years, with student performance on state assessments generally below the district and state averages across subjects and grade levels.
Mountainburg Middle School Brain Academy faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with an extremely high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 98.91% in 2022-2023. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.5, the school's academic performance has not improved, suggesting that addressing the underlying issues faced by the student population may be a key focus for the school and district.
While the school's performance is currently below the district and state averages, the data suggests that there may be room for improvement. Identifying and addressing the root causes of the low performance, such as the socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population, could be a focus for the school and district to help drive better outcomes for the students.
