That figure sits 9% above the Arkansas state mean of 13.6:1, signalling larger average class loads than peers in the same state.

The free-lunch share is 83% below the Arkansas average and 80% below the national baseline. Counselor coverage works out to roughly 382 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 21.5% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Rogers School District spends $12,254 per pupil district-wide, below the Arkansas average of $14,269 and below the national average of $19,490.
