My daughter goes to this school and she loves it and so do I. The teachers are great, kind, caring, understanding, and helpful. It is very difficult to have a child with ADHD to settle down and focus on completing one task at all and these teachers have patience and compassion to help the "problem" children get through several tasks in one day. My child is not singled out because she learns at a different level, instead she is encouraged to show just how many great things she can do. I couldn't ask for a better school. I am sad that we are going to be moving different state and lose this great school, teachers, and principal. Vanessa R.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Arkansas used the Benchmark Exam to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 11 in literacy and grades 3 through 8 in math. The Benchmark Exam is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Arkansas. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
