Summary

Janie Darr Elementary School in Rogers, AR, is a public school serving 433 students in grades PK through 5, and it is part of the Rogers School District.

Janie Darr is an academic powerhouse, consistently ranking among the very top elementary schools in the state for over a decade. Its test scores are dramatically higher than district and state averages, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (66.4%), Math (75.6%), and Science (68.8%) that are 20 to 30 percentage points above the district average. This performance is more in line with the top-tier Bentonville School District than its own district. The school also stands out for its resource efficiency, spending $10,707 per student—significantly less than nearby Elza R. Tucker Elementary School ($16,527 per student)—while achieving far superior academic results. This suggests that Janie Darr is highly effective at using its budget to drive student success.

While Janie Darr remains elite, it faces stiff competition from Evening Star Elementary School in the Bentonville district, which has recently overtaken it in state rankings. Janie Darr’s state ranking has also seen a slight dip from its peak years (when it was often #1 or #2) to #13 in 2025-2026, a trend worth monitoring. Despite this, the school is a clear "crown jewel" for the Rogers district, demonstrating that it can produce world-class results even as other district schools like Lowell Elementary School and Elza R. Tucker struggle more. For parents seeking a consistently high-performing school with a strong track record, Janie Darr is an outstanding choice.
