The school is part of the Mountain Home School District, which is ranked 90 out of 252 districts in Arkansas and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the Mountain Home School District and the state of Arkansas perform reasonably well, Guy Berry College And Career Academy significantly underperforms across various academic measures.

The combination of low academic performance, high free and reduced lunch rates, and a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 13.4 suggests that Guy Berry College And Career Academy may face significant challenges in providing effective instruction and support for its students. Addressing these issues may require a comprehensive approach to improve the educational outcomes for the students at this school, potentially drawing inspiration from the success of nearby charter schools like Mountain Home Career Academies.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
