Green Forest School District is a public school district based in Green Forest, Arkansas. As of August 2012[update], the district serves more than 1,200 students attending Green Forest Elementary (PK–3), Green Forest Intermediate (4–5), Green Forest Middle School (6–8), and Green Forest High School (9–12).[3]
Green Forest is one of three school districts (along with the Berryville School District and the Eureka Springs School District) that serve the student population of Carroll County, Arkansas.[4] Since July 2012, Matt Summers has served as superintendent of the Green Forest School District.[1]
In October 2012, the district was recognized as a "Higher Performing School" by the National Center for Educational Achievement.[5] Also in 2012, the district's elementary and middle schools were ranked among the "top 25 high-poverty schools" in Arkansas by the University of Arkansas Office for Education Policy.[5]
In 1966 the Carroll County School District dissolved with a piece going to the Green Forest district.[7]
