August 2022

Welcome, Mr. President!

Dr. Chris Nail may be starting another school year this month as Superintendent of Beebe School District, but he’s also adding Board President to his leadership roles this year. Dr. Nail was confirmed as our 2022-23 Board President at the May 2022 board meeting.

Dr. Nail is surrounded by a family full of educators and believes that “Teaching wise decision-making processes for our students…is a powerful tool that can positively impact [them].” He adds that, “People, not programs make all the difference. We need to get the right people in the right spots if we are going to make a difference in education or society.”

Best wishes to Dr. Nail and the Beebe School District for another great school year; we look forward to your leadership with Economics Arkansas!
