The Greenwood School District is proud to announce that we have earned an A Letter Grade for the 2024–2025 school year. Only 23 school districts across the entire state of Arkansas achieved an A, and among those, Greenwood ranked 4th overall based on total scale score. We are also honored to be the only school district in the River Valley to receive an A.
In addition to our letter grade distinction, Greenwood performed exceptionally well in the state’s Reward and Recognition Program. For 2024–2025, our schools earned a combined $308,237.82, ranking Greenwood 5th in Arkansas for total reward funding. Individual school awards include:
· Westwood Elementary – $106,114.26 for Top 5% Performance and Top 6–10% Growth
· East Pointe Elementary – $64,458.90 for Top 6–10% Performance and Growth
· Greenwood Junior High – $84,348.31 for Top 6–10% Performance and Top 5% Growth
· Greenwood High School – $53,316.35 for Top 6–10% Performance
These achievements are a direct reflection of the dedication and hard work demonstrated every day by our students, teachers, administrators, and support staff. Your commitment to success, your focus on learning and growth, and your consistent effort made this level of success possible. The awards earned by our schools—and the district’s A—are a clear testament to the quality of work happening across Greenwood.

Greenwood Junior High hosted the Arkansas Governor's Quiz Bowl Association's Junior High Quiz Bowl Day Camp Saturday.
Of the ten Greenwood students who attended, six won awards. Students were sorted into mixed-school, mixed ability-teams based on the number of questions they answered correctly during a
75 question buzz-in round.
The teams then played a three-game mini-tournament. Greenwood 7th grader Jaden Jones was a member of the eventual third place team, and earned a $10 gift card. Fellow 7th grader Andrew Medina earned a $15 dollar gift card as a member of the second-place team. 7th graders Grayson Lucus and Lawson Welch each earned $25 gift cards as members of the first place team.
In addition, 8th grader Mason Thompson and 7th grader Garrett DeBar both earned All-tournament team honors for being among the top scoring eight individual players at the tournament. Each received a $25 gift card.
Sixty students from eleven different schools participated in the camp.
Today was filled with excitement and happy tears as Westwood Elementary helped make a dream come true for one of our students, Ella Blythe! Thanks to Make-A-Wish, she’s headed to Disney World! 🎉🏰
The big surprise was made even more special with help from the GHS Cheer and Dance Teams, Westwood staff, classmates, her parents, sister, and grandparents — all gathered to celebrate this magical moment. 💫
It was a beautiful reminder of the kindness, community, and Bulldog spirit that make Greenwood so special. 💙
We invite all veterans, families, and community members to join us for this moving celebration — a time to come together, learn, and say thank you.
