Summary

Nemo Vista Elementary School is a public elementary school in Center Ridge, Arkansas, serving 229 students in grades K-5. It is part of the Nemo Vista School District, which is ranked 61 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Nemo Vista Elementary School consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Arkansas, reaching as high as 29th out of 495 schools in the 2024-2025 school year. The school significantly outperforms the state average in academic proficiency, with 62.7% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 64.5% proficient or better in math, compared to the statewide averages of 34.7% and 38.7%, respectively. This strong academic performance is likely due in part to the school's very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.6 to 13.8 over the past few years, which is significantly lower than nearby schools.

Despite serving a population with a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families, ranging from 60.4% to 67.88% receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Nemo Vista Elementary School is able to achieve exceptional academic results. While the school outperforms most nearby schools, including those in the Greenbrier School District, its performance is not as strong as the top-performing schools in the Greenbrier district, such as Greenbrier Springhill Elementary and Greenbrier Westside Elementary.

What people are saying

by a citizen
Tuesday, January 7, 2020

this place is the most corrupt school i have ever been to. the teachers gossip about other students to other students witch is very unprofessional. There was a point in my life where i consulted the counselor discussing my feelings of depression and she sent me back to class and told me to stop being sad. This place deserves less than one star. Nothing is done about bullying here causing many of the new students to just move back. The teachers feel as if they can say anything with no consequences about the students , and sadly they can because the people in power are just the same. This is a warning. I moved schools and can tell a major difference in how im treated and how the teachers are much more professional and i actually got help from the counselor at my new school instead of being told to "go back to class and stop being so sad."
