Joe T. Robinson High School is a public high school for students in grades 9 through 12 located just outside the city limits of Little Rock, Arkansas, United States. The school is named after then U.S. Senator Joseph Taylor Robinson in 1927 during the same year Pulaski County Special School District (PCSSD) was formed. Robinson High School moved to its current facilities at the start of the 1981–82 school year and for 2010–11 hosts about 500 pupils, the smallest PCSSD high school population. Despite its Little Rock address, the school is often referenced as Pulaski Robinson (versus Little Rock Robinson) based on its affiliation with PCSSD and not the Little Rock School District. Mary Carolyn Bailey is the school's principal starting in the 2012–13 school year.[3]

Academics

The school is accredited by AdvancED since 1965 and by the ADE (ADE).[4] The assumed course of study is the ADE Smart Core curriculum, which requires 22 units before students graduate. Students complete regular (core and career focus) courses and exams and may select Advanced Placement (AP) coursework and exams that provide an opportunity for college credit before high school graduation.

Extracurricular activities

The Robinson High School mascot is the Senator with black and gold as the school colors. The Robinson Senators compete in a variety of sports including football, basketball, track and field in the 4A 7 Conference (2012-14) administered by the Arkansas Activities Association.[5]
