Abstract

The Office for Education Policy is pleased to bring you its 2015 Arkansas Report Card for highlighting our students’ characteristics and educational performance through the 2014-2015 academic year. his year marked the first significant change in student assessment in more than a decade, the implementation of a letter grade system for grading schools, and new national data from the NAEP. As we head into a new assessment system this spring, we hope the data presented within continue the conversation that surrounds our education system. The following data are intended to provide a snapshot of K-12 education in our state. Although there are many bright spots across the state, it is important for our policymakers, administration, and educators to monitor and adjust based upon current trends and student performance measures at both the state and national level.
