Summary:
The 72067 zip code area is home to two schools - West Side Elementary School and West Side High School, both part of the West Side School District (Cleburne). While the high school is a standout performer, ranking among the top 37-110 high schools in Arkansas, the elementary school has more average academic outcomes.
West Side High School consistently outperforms the state average in English Language Arts, Reading, and Science, earning 4 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. However, the school struggles in Mathematics, with proficiency rates below the state average, particularly in Algebra and Geometry. In contrast, West Side Elementary School performs above the state average in English Language Arts and Reading, but lags behind in Mathematics and Science, earning a 3 out of 5 star rating.
Both schools serve a high-poverty student population, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the higher-than-average spending per student and low student-teacher ratios at both schools, the district's overall performance suggests the need for a closer examination of instructional practices, curriculum, and support systems to address the disparities within the district and ensure all students are receiving a high-quality education.
