Summary

Ivory Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in Camden, Arkansas, with 261 students. The school is part of the Camden Fairview School District, which is ranked 241 out of 250 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Ivory Intermediate School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Arkansas elementary schools over the past decade, with a ranking between 416-471 out of around 480-500 schools.

Ivory Intermediate School significantly underperforms the state and district averages across all subject areas and grade levels. In 2024-2025, only 20.3% of Ivory Intermediate students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 34.7% statewide. The school's math proficiency rate of 22.5% was also well below the state average of 38.7%. Additionally, Ivory Intermediate School has extremely high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 98.85% to 100% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Despite serving a high-needs student population, the school's spending per student of $9,930 in 2018-2019 was lower than the state average.

Comparing Ivory Intermediate to other nearby schools, such as Harmony Grove Elementary, reveals stark differences in academic performance. Harmony Grove, which is in a different district, the Harmony Grove School District (Ouachita), outperforms Ivory Intermediate by a wide margin across all subject areas. This suggests that the challenges faced by Ivory Intermediate School and the broader Camden Fairview School District may be systemic, requiring a comprehensive approach to address the root causes of the school's underperformance.
