Summary

Robert L. Davis Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Alexander, Arkansas, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 530 students. The school is part of the Bryant School District, which is ranked 39 out of 250 districts in Arkansas and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the Bryant School District is generally high-performing, Robert L. Davis Elementary School has consistently performed below the district and the state of Arkansas in terms of proficiency rates across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Reading, Mathematics, and Science were all lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 61.81% to 70.26% over the past few years, suggesting a relatively high proportion of students from low-income families.

When compared to other elementary schools in the surrounding area, such as Bryant Elementary School and Collegeville Elementary School, which are also part of the Bryant School District, Robert L. Davis Elementary School consistently underperforms in terms of test scores and proficiency rates. This suggests that there may be specific challenges or factors within the school that are contributing to the lower academic outcomes, and the school may benefit from a closer examination of its practices and resources to address these issues.
