The importance of the Social Studies Curriculum Frameworks to Arkansas K-12 education cannot be overlooked. Parents and educators readily agree on the importance of developing reading, writing and math skills. They even agree in our technological society on the importance of teaching science, but what about social studies? It is through the study of social studies that students become aware of the world around them and how that world directly impacts their lives. By learning about economics, civics and government, geography and history, students are able to develop core beliefs and values, an understanding of how the past has shaped the present and will shape the future, and the interconnectedness of the content areas.

  • Comprehensive Arkansas Higher Education Annual Report
    Comprehensive Arkansas Higher Education Annual Report December 1, 2013 College-Going Rates Arkansas Department of Higher Education 423 Main Street, Suite 400, Little Rock, AR 72201 Agenda Item No. 1 Higher Education Coordinating Board July 26, 2013 Report on the College-Going Rate of Public School Graduates ________________________ Attachment 1-A College-Going Rate by Institution Attachment 1-B College-Going Rate History Attachment 1-C NCES (National Center for Education Statistics) Table 234 Attachment 1-D College-Going Rate by Race/Ethnicity and Gender Attachment 1-E College-Going Rate by County Attachment 1-F College-Going Rate by High School District Attachment 1-G Recently Graduated Public High School Students: Where They Attend College The college-going rate measures the proportion of students enrolling in postsecondary education in the fall semester after finishing high school, in most cases, immediately after high school. Since most students enrolling in postsecondary education do so immediately after completing high school, the college-going rate is an indicator of the total proportion that will or did enroll in postsecondary education. The percentage, therefore, reflects the accessibility of higher education as well as students’ assessment of the value of attending college when compared to working, entering the military, traveling, or following other pursuits. New Methodology: This report reflects a new methodology. The new methodology began with the 2010 Fall College-Going Rate report. This new methodology focuses on students that (1) graduated from an Arkansas public school district in Academic Year 2011-2012, (2) are first-time entering students in the 2012 Fall term, and (3) are Arkansas residents.
