History
On July 1, 1998, the former Humnoke School District consolidated with the Carlisle School District.
In 2007, the district proposed a property tax increase because it believed that the increase could help it build a new high school. An Arkansas state law passed in 2005 had the potential of helping Carlisle School District pay for a new high school.[4]
