Don R. Roberts Elementary is the newest school in the Little Rock School District. It opened in August 2010. Named after Dr. Don R. Roberts, former Director of the Arkansas Department of Education from 1979-1984. After his retirement he returned to the Little Rock School District as interim Superintendent and led the district through the selection process of a new superintendent.
While working for the Little Rock School District, Dr. Roberts was recognized for his leadership and was noted as "well-respected" by members of the community and media. Dr. Roberts is known for his ability to build bridges between businesses and schools in the communities where he has led school districts. The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette characterized his superintendence as "serious business." The Arkansas Times noted his tenure as "an uncommon period of tranquility." His legacy we most choose to follow is to “always do the right thing”. This is a quote heard often from Dr. Roberts during his years of working in the field of educating all students, and it is this quote we have chosen for the motto of our school. Roberts elementary school consists of dedicated high performing students, parents and staff that believe in always doing the right thing.
The two story, 147,431 square-foot building features two art rooms, two music rooms, a gymnasium, large dining room, an EAST lab and a state of the art media center. A unique learning environment that provides for community learning in multipurpose areas for gatherings and specials projects.
