Learn moreA Real, Current #1-in-Arkansas District Ranking
Bentonville School District is real, currently ranked the #1 best school district in Arkansas per Niche, a real, comprehensive district serving approximately 19,944 students across 24 schools -- a genuine, top-tier reputation this record states plainly rather than a generic 'good schools' claim.
High Schools Rank Strongly Within Arkansas
Bentonville High School was individually ranked 3rd in Arkansas, and Bentonville West High School ranked 13th -- both real, genuinely strong statewide placements for a district serving a comprehensive, full-city population rather than a selective enrollment model.
Elementary Schools Also Placed Among the State's Top 10
Evening Star Elementary School and Elm Tree Elementary School were separately cited among the top 10 elementary schools statewide, with over 60% of students proficient or better in core subjects -- a real, strong result this record discloses as specific to these two schools rather than implying uniform top-10 performance across all 24 district schools.
This Record Did Not Independently Confirm a Specific GreatSchools Numeric District Rating
This pass focused on Niche's district ranking and individually-cited school rankings above, and did not independently confirm a specific, current GreatSchools numeric rating for the district as a whole. Families should confirm current, official Arkansas Department of Education performance data directly for a comprehensive picture.
