Summary

Willowbrook Elementary School is a K-4 school in Bentonville, AR, serving 671 students as part of the top-rated Bentonville School District, which ranks 7th in the state.

Willowbrook is an academic powerhouse, consistently ranking in the top 5% of Arkansas elementary schools over the past decade and earning a 5-star rating. Its math performance is particularly exceptional, with 79.1% of all students proficient in math—nearly double the state average of 44.1% and significantly higher than the district average of 72.4%. This strength is on par with nearby elite schools like Evening Star Elementary (84.7% math proficiency) and Founders Classical Academies of Arkansas Rogers (81%). However, a notable area for attention is 3rd-grade reading, where only 59% of students are proficient in ELA, below the district average of 63.5%. This dip is an anomaly for a school of this caliber, as 4th-grade reading scores rebound to 68.4%, well above the district average.

Willowbrook stands out for its extremely low rate of economic disadvantage, with only 6.41% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch. This is a stark contrast to nearby schools like The International School at Mary Mae Jones (42.5%) and Vaughn Elementary (21.95%). Interestingly, Willowbrook’s per-student spending ($11,007) is not the highest in the area—The International School at Mary Mae Jones spends $13,389 per student but has much lower test scores—suggesting that family background and instructional quality are key drivers of success. Located just 0.44 miles from Central Park at Morning Star (ranked #14), Willowbrook’s historical consistency and superior math scores give it a slight edge in this competitive neighborhood.
