Elkins School District

The Elkins School District in Arkansas is home to four high-performing schools, including two elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The district has consistently ranked among the top schools in the state, with several of its institutions earning top ratings from SchoolDigger.

Elkins Elementary School stands out as a top performer, ranking 40th out of 497 Arkansas elementary schools and earning a 5-star rating. The school has maintained its position in the top 25% of elementary schools in the state for the past three years. Elkins Middle School also impresses, ranking 43rd out of 335 Arkansas middle schools and earning a 4-star rating. It has been a top-performing middle school, ranking in the top 15% of schools in the state over the past three years. While not the highest ranked, Elkins High School still performs well, ranking in the top 20% of Arkansas high schools for the past three years and earning a 4-star rating.

The Elkins schools generally outperform the state averages in various subjects and grade levels, with particularly strong results in math and science. However, the district has relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 35.89% at the high school to 49.84% at the elementary school, suggesting a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. The district's spending per student and student-teacher ratios are in line with state averages, but the variation in ratios between school levels may be an area for further exploration.
