Congratulations to Vilonia Elementary School for receiving awards from the Office for Education Policy for Outstanding Educational Performance in the 2024-2025 school year! VES ranked in the top 20 schools in Arkansas for Overall Growth - ranking number nine out of 151 elementary schools. They also ranked in the top 10 schools in Arkanas for ELA Growth scores-ranking number two!
OEP awards focus solely on student academic growth. Unlike other indicators of school performance, academic growth is not very correlated with school demographics. This means it is reflective of what students are learning in school, not what challenges they may face due to out of school factors.
Way to go, Vilonia Elementary students, teachers, staff, & parents — your commitment, hard work, and focus on learning are truly making a difference!
