High Schools in Piggott School District


Summary:

The Piggott School District in Arkansas is home to a single high school, Piggott High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school's small class sizes and per-student spending are positive factors, the data indicates that Piggott High School is a relatively low-performing school compared to other high schools in Arkansas.

Piggott High School's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science falling well below state averages across all grade levels.

The school's declining statewide ranking, from 210 out of 282 high schools in 2021-2022 to 245 out of 295 high schools in 2022-2023, further suggests that Piggott High School is struggling to keep pace with other schools in the state. Additionally, the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 48.75% in the 2022-2023 school year, indicates that the school may be serving a population with greater socioeconomic challenges, which could impact academic outcomes. Overall, the data points to the need for targeted interventions and support to improve student success at Piggott High School.
