GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Springdale is a very small school district which allows for better communication and closer relationships with all involved. However, due to it's size you don't get as much opportunity as you would from a bigger school.

The teachers are very helpful when needing extra credit. Guidance counselors are very knowledgeable on where to get information you are looking for. They go above and beyond to help all students. I would like to see working more one on one to prepare for colleges.
