​​Important reminders for all CFSD events ​ ​

All students are expected to be on their best behavior and follow all school policies, including the dress code, while attending school events. Students will be banned from after school activities if they are involved in any fights, disrespectful towards administration or any school personnel, or if any prohibited items are found on them or in their vehicles during an event.

6-12 grade students will have 20 minutes after school activities end to leave campus. Students should notify parents ahead of time to let them know what time the activity will end. Announcements are made prior to the activity ending to remind students to contact parents.

We appreciate your support and look forward to cheering on all Cardinal student-athletes together!
 
attendance matters

Attendance Matters! Let's Show Up Together This School Year.

At Camden Fairview, we believe that #AttendanceMatters and that absences are lost opportunities to learn in the classroom. Let's work together to make sure students are at school every day possible! Some absences are unavoidable, but it’s important that students are at school from bell-to-bell as often as possible.

Beginning in kindergarten, regular attendance is often an indicator of higher academic performance. Students who are at #SchoolEveryDay also do better academically in middle school and are more likely to graduate high school.

Ivory Intermediate Educators Named Trailblazer Award Nominees

Congratulations to Talitha VanHook and Cody Launius! They are Office of Innovation for Education Trailblazer Award Nominees! 

Mrs. Vanhook is redefining student success through engaging, research-based strategies.  By using visual aids, music, hands-on activities, and technology, she creates a dynamic learning environment where students thrive.

Cardinal Track Starts Season with Strong Performances.
Cardinal Track is off to a great start this season, led by CFHS Senior Trent Haygood. Trent won the Triple Jump with an amazing 49-2 last night at the Prescott Merchant Relays, breaking the 2017 meet record by 5 feet! We believe this performance gives him the current #1 triple jump ranking in the United States for 2025.

(Pictured are Trent Haygood, Dakylan Hunter, Kalea Miller, Lily Mayweather, Aniya Robinson, and Kiaree Davis at the 2024 Meet of Champions.)

CFMS OEP
CFMS recognized for student growth by the Office for Education Policy (OEP) at the University of Arkansas
Camden Fairview Middle School (CFMS) was recognized for student growth on the 2024 ATLAS state assessment by the Office for Education Policy (OEP) at the University of Arkansas. 

  • CFMS was recognized as a school where students demonstrated high growth in English Language Arts (ELA) on the state ATLAS test in Spring 2024. 
  • CFMS was also recognized as a school where students are Beating the Odds by demonstrating high growth in ELA while the school serves a high percentage of students who participate in the Free and Reduced Lunch program. 
The OEP website says, “We think growth is the best indicator of the positive impact that your school is having on students.”

Principal Ka’Misha Davis said, “Great things are happening at CFMS! These successes are only possible because of the hard work of CFMS students, educators, facilitators, support staff, and administrators. I want to take this opportunity to shoutout our team at CFMS and thank CFMS students and families - you are each an important part of CFMS!”

​​Important reminders for all CFSD events ​ ​
All students are expected to be on their best behavior and follow all school policies, including the dress code, while attending school events. Students will be banned from after school activities if they are involved in any fights, disrespectful towards administration or any school personnel, or if any prohibited items are found on them or in their vehicles during an event.

6-12 grade students will have 20 minutes after school activities end to leave campus. Students should notify parents ahead of time to let them know what time the activity will end. Announcements are made prior to the activity ending to remind students to contact parents.

We appreciate your support and look forward to cheering on all Cardinal student-athletes together!
 
attendance matters
Attendance Matters! Let's Show Up Together This School Year.
At Camden Fairview, we believe that #AttendanceMatters and that absences are lost opportunities to learn in the classroom. Let's work together to make sure students are at school every day possible! Some absences are unavoidable, but it’s important that students are at school from bell-to-bell as often as possible.

Beginning in kindergarten, regular attendance is often an indicator of higher academic performance. Students who are at #SchoolEveryDay also do better academically in middle school and are more likely to graduate high school.
