Understanding the 8/10 Rating
With a rating of 8/10 (above average), Springdale School District ranks among Arkansas’s above average-rated school systems. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in the U.S. Department of Education’s EDFacts collection.
