Summary:
London, Arkansas is home to a single elementary school, London Elementary School, which serves 196 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 4th grade as part of the Russellville School District.
London Elementary School stands out for its strong performance in Mathematics, consistently outperforming both the district and state averages. In the 2025-2026 school year, 49.2% of students were proficient in math, compared to 44.1% statewide. However, the school's state ranking has dropped significantly over the past three years, from the 77th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 51st percentile in 2025-2026, despite test scores remaining competitive. The school also has a low student-teacher ratio of 13.6:1 and spends a substantial $16,011 per student, which is notably high. A high percentage of students (66.33%) qualify for free or reduced lunch, indicating a significant population from low-income households.
Performance varies by grade level and subject. While 3rd graders excelled in Science (53.1% proficient) and 4th graders led in English Language Arts (45.1% proficient), the school's overall English Language Arts (38.1%) and Reading (39.6%) proficiency rates fall slightly below the district averages. This mix of strong math performance, high per-student spending, and a declining state ranking suggests a school with clear strengths but also areas needing attention, particularly in maintaining its competitive edge across all subjects and grade levels.
