Just Right for Education

Searcy is home to a vibrant education community, offering a wealth of opportunities for students of all ages. For K-12 education, the city is served by two exceptional public school districts: Searcy Public Schools and Riverview School District, both known for their commitment to academic excellence and comprehensive programs. Families also have strong private school options, including Harding Academy, CrossPointe Preparatory, and Liberty Christian School, each providing high-quality education rooted in their unique missions.

For higher education, Searcy is proud to host Harding University, a renowned liberal arts institution, and Arkansas State University (ASU) Searcy, which offers technical programs that play a crucial role in supporting local industry. For example, when Walmart Distribution needed more employees trained in robotics, ASU Searcy responded by developing a tailored program to meet that demand. This synergy between the local education system and industry highlights Searcy's commitment to fostering a workforce ready for the future, making it a great place to live, learn, and work.
