Rogers School District

The Rogers School District in Arkansas operates 23 schools, including 16 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district as a whole performs well above the state averages, ranking 32nd out of 252 districts in Arkansas and receiving a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Several schools stand out within the district, including Janie Darr Elementary School, Eastside Elementary School, and Bellview Elementary, all of which consistently rank among the top elementary schools in the state with 5-star ratings and exceptional proficiency rates across all subjects. At the high school level, Rogers New Technology High School also ranks among the best in Arkansas with a 5-star rating.

However, the data also highlights significant disparities in performance between the top-performing and lower-performing schools within the district. Factors such as free/reduced lunch rates, spending per student, and student-teacher ratios appear to play a key role in academic achievement, with the high-performing schools generally having lower poverty rates, higher funding, and smaller class sizes. The district may need to focus on improving equity and supporting the schools that are struggling to ensure all students have access to a high-quality education.
