The mission of Arkadelphia Public School District is to create a quality learning organization where student achievement results in excellence within the local and global community.
The Arkadelphia Promise is a program that invests over $400,000 per year in scholarships annually and provides a better future for the students in Arkadelphia. The Arkadelphia Promise helps send Arkadelphia students to college at an amazing rate of 74% of all graduates. Our students go on to pursue 2 year and 4 year degrees at about 25% higher than the state average of 49%!
Arkadelphia students are also “sticking” in college. The freshman to sophomore retention rates are some of the best around. Our nine year average is 76.7%, which is well above the national average of 64.9%. The state of Arkansas average is 57.8%.
