El Dorado High School is an accredited comprehensive public secondary school located in El Dorado, Arkansas, United States. The high school serves students in grades 9 through 12 for the community of El Dorado and surrounding unincorporated communities in Union County, Arkansas. The school is administered by the El Dorado School District. Its principal is Alva Reibe. The school has won 26 state athletic championships.

Academics

The assumed course of study for students follows the Smart Core curriculum developed by the Arkansas Department of Education (ADE). Students complete regular (core and elective) and career focus courses and exams, and may select Advanced Placement (AP) coursework and exams that provide an opportunity for college credit.

In 2011, El Dorado School District and its high school were recognized in the AP District of the Year Awards program in the College Board's 1st Annual Honor Roll. This consisted of 388 U.S. public school districts (two in Arkansas) that simultaneously achieved increases in access to AP courses for a broader number of students, and improved the rate at which their AP students earned scores of 3 or higher on an AP exam.[2]

The El Dorado Promise

{{unreferenced|date=December 2018|section}}

A unique feature of El Dorado High School is the educational opportunities available to students. In January 2007, Murphy Oil Corporation made a $50 million promise to the students of El Dorado public schools and the community. Known as the El Dorado Promise, this scholarship program provides students who graduate from the El Dorado School District with a scholarship to be used at any accredited two- or four-year educational institution in the United States. The maximum amount payable will be equal to the highest tuition cost payable at any Arkansas public university. The Promise makes a college scholarship as easy as going to school, graduating and getting a scholarship. Since the introduction of the El Dorado Promise, the number of graduates from El Dorado School District who enroll in college has increased more than 20 percent. School enrollment has increased three percent after a 20-year decline. Clarification letters sent to students in 2011 by the Promise Director (S. Thompson) stated, "if all of your invoiced expenses are covered by other scholarships and/or grants, then your Promise funds will go to help future Promise recipients and will not be refunded to you." This means that the Promise will pay last, and many students will not receive the benefit of it.

The El Dorado Education Foundation

The district receives support from the El Dorado Education Foundation (EDEF), a nonprofit organization that recognizes academic excellence through programs such as academic chairs, teacher grants, teacher excellence awards and Academic Signing Day. In the past 11 years,{{when|date=December 2018}} the foundation has awarded over $525,500 to educators who propose innovative projects to enhance learning. Perhaps the most noteworthy contribution of the EDEF has been its assistance in the establishment of the nation’s first elementary and secondary school endowed chair program in mathematics, science, foreign language and literacy.[4]
