Summary:

The city of Springdale, Arkansas is home to 19 elementary schools that are part of the Springdale School District, which is ranked 137 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and provide a range of academic programs and extracurricular activities.

Among the standout schools in the district are Willis Shaw Elementary School, ranked #24 out of 495 elementary schools in the state for the 2024-2025 school year, and Bernice Young Elementary, ranked #62. These schools demonstrate exceptional academic performance, with over 50% of students proficient or better in core subjects. Another high-performing school is Jim D Rollins Elementary School Of Innovation, ranked #108 out of 495 for 2024-2025 and known for its strong performance in Mathematics and Science.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic achievement across the district. Many schools have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage, and tend to have lower test scores. The Springdale School District will need to implement targeted, evidence-based interventions to address these inequities and support the growth of all students, building on the success of its top-performing schools.
