Education
Sherrill is served by the Pine Bluff School District.[7] Students are zoned to Park/Greenville School for preschool, James Matthews Elementary School, Robert F. Morehead Middle School, and Dollarway High School.
At one point it was served by the Sherrill School District, which operated Sherrill Elementary School.[8] The Altheimer-Sherrill district was created in 1979 when the Altheimer and Sherrill districts merged.[9]
On September 1, 1993, Altheimer-Sherrill consolidated into the Altheimer Unified School District;[10] Altheimer Unified operated two schools: Martin Elementary School and Altheimer-Sherrill High School.[11] The Altheimer Unified School District consolidated into the Dollarway School District on July 10, 2006.[10] Altheimer-Sherrill High closed in 2007, with students moved to Dollarway High.[12] Altheimer Martin Elementary School closed in 2013.[13]
In December 2020 the Arkansas State Board of Education ruled that the Dollarway School District should merge into the Pine Bluff School District as of July 1, 2021; the post-merger school district is to operate all existing schools from both districts.[14] Accordingly, the attendance boundary maps of the respective schools remained the same for the 2021–2022 school year, and all DSD territory became a part of the PBSD territory.[15] The exception was with the pre-kindergarten levels, as all PBSD areas are now assigned to Forrest Park/Greenville School, including the territory from the former Dollarway district.[16] In 2023 the district announced that Dollarway High would merge into Pine Bluff High School, and that Morehead Middle School would become the only middle school for all of the Pine Bluff School District.[17]
