In Loving Memory of Terrence Blake II 💚 It is with profound sadness that we share the news of the passing of Terrence Blake II, a recent graduate of the Conway School District. Terrence’s vibrant spirit and infectious smile touched the hearts of everyone around him, leaving a lasting impact on our community. Terrence and his family have been invaluable contributors to our district, embodying the values of kindness, dedication, and community involvement. His journey inspired many, and his legacy will continue to resonate within our halls. As we come together to support the Blake family during this incredibly difficult time, let us remember the joy and light that Terrence brought into our lives. Our thoughts and prayers are with them. Please join us in honoring Terrence’s memory. 💚💙

Day 1 of PD Palooza 2026 was a resounding success! The energy among our teachers and staff is truly unmatched as they eagerly prepare to welcome back students. This summer, they are dedicated to learning new strategies, uplifting one another, and having a great time in the process. What makes PD Palooza so special is its unique blend of professional development; not only do we bring in exceptional outside experts, but our own talented educators also lead engaging sessions. As Mr. Black emphasized in our opening session, “Iron sharpens iron,” highlighting the invaluable partnership of learning from one another across the district!

This week, Conway High School had the privilege of hosting more than 300 science, math, and English teachers from across Arkansas, as well as many of our own educators, for professional development through Arkansas AIMS. It was an outstanding opportunity to showcase our district, open our doors to educators from around the state, and strengthen our partnership with Arkansas AIMS. AIMS provides support and professional development for secondary teachers that is content specific so that teachers can go back to their classrooms with engaging activities and effective strategies that are aligned to Arkansas standards. We are grateful for this collaboration and proud to provide a space for educators to learn, grow, and share best practices.

🌟We are incredibly proud to celebrate our 3rd grade teachers and students for their strong performance on this year’s state assessment!🌟

During the first year of implementation of the Arkansas LEARNS 3rd grade promotion law, our educators showed exceptional focus, dedication, and instructional skill, and our students rose to the challenge with perseverance and hard work. Their growth and achievement reflect the power of strong teaching, consistent support, and high expectations in every classroom.

Thank you to our 3rd grade teachers for the countless hours spent planning, teaching, and supporting students, and to our families for partnering with schools throughout the year. Most importantly, congratulations to our 3rd graders—you have much to be proud of!

We look forward to building on this success and continuing to support every student’s growth and success in the years ahead!
