Camden Fairview School Board Highlights Student Achievement, Safety Initiatives, and District Improvements

Camden Fairview School Board Highlights Student Achievement, Safety Initiatives, and District Improvements

The Camden Fairview School Board met for its regular monthly meeting on December 16th to recognize student and staff achievements, approve key operational updates, and review district progress as the semester comes to a close. The meeting opened with Cardinals Soar recognitions honoring outstanding accomplishments across the district.

Camden Fairview High School’s All-Region Honor Choir students and choir director Andrey Wright were recognized for excellence in music education and student achievement at the regional and state level. Michelle King, of Ivory Intermediate School, was also honored for being selected as an Arkansas Association of Math Leaders Emerging Leader award recipient, recognizing her leadership and impact in math instruction.

Board members approved several important initiatives aimed at strengthening daily operations, safety, and communication districtwide. The Board approved the purchase of three new school buses through a five-year installment contract with valued community partner Farmers Bank & Trust. These additions will support daily routes, field trips, and athletic events while allowing the district to retire older buses and continue modernizing its fleet. 

The district will also finish updating its phone systems to improve call quality, reduce service disruptions, and ensure more reliable communication for families, staff, and emergency situations. The upgrades will replace outdated equipment and strengthen the district’s ability to communicate quickly and effectively during both routine operations and urgent circumstances.

The district will convene a districtwide meeting to review crisis plans and safety programs to ensure alignment with best practices. This collaborative review, which includes support from Camden Police Department and Ouachita County Sheriff’s Office, will focus on clarity, consistency, and preparedness across all campuses.

The Board approved minutes from meetings held on November 18, November 20, December 2, and December 8, 2025. District Math Specialist Leah Stinnett presented current math data and instructional trends, and the Board reviewed monthly financial reports, facilities and maintenance updates, and facility rental requests.

Camden Fairview School Board Hires Armstrong as New Superintendent

Posted Date: 12/09/25 (7:30 AM)

In a December 8, 2025, special meeting of the Camden Fairview School Board, the Board voted unanimously to appoint Interim Superintendent Tara Armstrong as Superintendent of Schools, effective immediately.

This decision follows the hiring process outlined by the Board earlier this fall. Applications were accepted through November 27, and Board members reviewed all submissions during a December 2 meeting. During Monday’s meeting, Armstrong participated in an interview with the Board before the final vote.

Armstrong has served as Interim Superintendent since July 2025, following the resignation of then-Superintendent Johnny Embry. At the time, the district noted that “Mrs. Armstrong brings a strong background in educational leadership, a deep understanding of our district’s values, and a clear vision for continued growth and excellence. Her transition into this role ensures stability and continued momentum as we move forward.”

Reflecting on her new role, Armstrong shared her gratitude with CFSD staff, saying, “I am honored by the Board’s unanimous confidence and support. It has been my privilege to serve as Interim Superintendent since July. Over these past six months, what has stood out most is the dedication, care, and resilience I see in our classrooms, offices, buses, cafeterias, and campuses every day.”

She continued, “I know firsthand that this district is a special place thanks to each of you - the people who dedicate yourselves to supporting our students and one another every day.”

Looking ahead, Armstrong emphasized the district’s continued focus on safety, staff support, and academic excellence.

“As we move forward together, my commitment remains the same: to support staff in the essential work they do; to ensure safe, supportive learning environments; to strengthen our focus on high-quality instruction and continued academic growth; and to keep our attention on what matters most: every Cardinal, every day.”

Armstrong brings 27 years of experience in public education, including service as an elementary principal, Director of Early Childhood Education and Special Education Services, Assistant Superintendent, and most recently, Interim Superintendent.
