The school is part of the Arkansas Virtual Academy district, which is ranked 177 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ark Virtual Academy Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the state and its own district on standardized tests. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 24.9% of its students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 34.7% statewide, and its math proficiency rate was just 18.5%, compared to 38.7% for the state. The school has been ranked in the bottom quartile of Arkansas elementary schools for the past several years, ranging from 322nd out of 496 schools in 2020-2021 to 394th out of 495 schools in 2024-2025, and it has consistently received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

In contrast, the nearby traditional public schools, such as Baker Elementary, Fulbright Elementary, and Terry Elementary, generally outperform Ark Virtual Academy Elementary on standardized tests and have higher school rankings. For example, Baker Elementary ranked 16th out of 495 Arkansas elementary schools in 2024-2025, with 69.2% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts. These findings suggest that the virtual learning model may present unique challenges for elementary students, particularly those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, and that adequate funding and resources are crucial to support virtual learning.
