As of the 2012-2013 school year, the district's 17 schools have a total enrollment of 15,014 students and 900 certified staff members. [1] The Bentonville Public Schools district has grown dramatically in the last decade, and is now one of the largest districts (by student population) in the state. This growth has encouraged the district to improve its academic, athletic, fine arts, and social programs, and all have been grown in size and quality in recent years. The district saw all of these changes largely under the leadership of superintendent Gary Compton, who took the position in January 2001.
