Ashdown Public Schools This is the official page for Ashdown Public Schools. We are committed to providing an environment of educational excellence where all belong, all

In 1891, citizens of Ashdown instituted a tradition of community pride in educational excellence by opening the first school in Ashdown. What first began in a one-room building located near the present site of the New Traditions School on Main and Frisco streets has grown into a consolidated school district covering 327 square miles and educating 1,400 students a year.
