LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The Miss Arkansas Scholarship Organization just welcomed a new queen! Kennedy Holland, a vibrant 20-year-old student hailing from Greenwood, is now Miss Arkansas 2025. Prior to this, she captured the Miss Metro title and swept the statewide pageant.
Holland's zeal for community service shines through her project, "Compassion Legacy." This initiative champions the cause of advocating for and funding recreational spaces.
Joining Holland in the coveted top 5 were:
- 1st Runner-Up: Miss Greater Jonesboro, Camryn Ross
- 2nd Runner-Up: Miss Southwest Arkansas, Haley Shourd
- 3rd Runner-Up: Miss White River, Jada Simpson
- 4th Runner-Up: Miss Dogwood, Stevie St. John
As the reigning Miss Arkansas, Holland stands to gain over $36,000 in scholarships to further her education. She'll proudly represent the Natural State in the forthcoming fall edition of the Miss America competition.
Details about her community service activities are sparsely available, but we know she's actively engaged in local communities and educational advocacy, as evidenced by her participation in scholarship programs and studio appearances. The Miss Arkansas Scholarship Organization endorses leadership, public service, and educational support as pillars of its mission, which seemed apropos for titleholders' community initiatives.
