GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Beebe High School isn't a bad school, but it's not the best. There's definitely good support/help with learning.

I can only speak from the view of an AP and Honors student. My AP and Honors teachers were some of the best teachers I have ever had as they truly enjoyed their jobs. I feel like I have genuinely learned so much, especially about the U.S. government and World History in general. I am going to miss these teachers as they are the best part about this school. The worst part I would say is the bullying of diverse students (African-American, LGBT+, etc.) as well as the bathrooms. Although, the bathrooms are in part to the students destroying them.

This school has teachers that teach their kids on a large curve due to the tests being so hard that the failure rate is overwhelming.
