The 2026-27 FAFSA is expected to open October 1, 2025! Students & families can start creating their FSA IDs now 🆔✨
Also, please remember to put your student's name on EVERYTHING! Every year we have some forms and/or money turned in with no names written on them. This makes it very difficult for our chocolate team to keep accurate records and clear accounts. Thank you and happy selling!

England School District is proud to announce that England High School has improved to a School Letter Grade of "C," and England Elementary School has maintained a School Letter Grade of "C" for the 2024-25 school year!
From a Commissioner's Memo published by the Arkansas Department of Elementary and Secondary Education:
"Arkansas’s accountability formula was redesigned in 2025 to provide a clearer and more meaningful picture of Arkansas schools and student learning. For elementary and middle schools, the formula focuses on student achievement and year-to-year growth, and prioritizes the students who are furthest behind with an additional growth measure. For high schools, the formula includes an additional measure focused on whether students are “success ready” graduates prepared to enlist, enroll, or be employed."
Thank you to all of our students, teachers, administrators, and support staff for the hard work that goes on daily at both EHS and EES! Thank you to our school board and stakeholders for all you do to support ESD! We appreciate you all!
