🌟 Wampus Cat Pride! 🌟
We are proud to celebrate Conway High School’s remarkable achievement in the latest U.S. News & World Report Best High Schools rankings! 🏆
Dr. Kate Worley, Conway High School Principal was recognized on behalf of CHS for this recognition during the Wampus Cat Pride section of tonight’s Conway School Board meeting.
CHS has climbed to 26th in Arkansas and 2,391st nationally – a big jump from last year’s 37th in the state and 3,057th in the nation. This moved Conway High from the 83rd percentile to the 87th percentile! 💙🐾

🇺🇸 An Honor to Begin the Year 🇺🇸
At our Back-to-School Convocation, we were deeply honored to be led in the Pledge of Allegiance by Retired United States Air Force Captain Floyd Brantley.
Born in 1925, Captain Brantley’s life is a remarkable story of service, sacrifice, and perseverance—from serving as a Navy corpsman in World War II, to flying in Korea with the Air Force, to devoting decades to education and publishing. With 23 years of military service and a lifetime of impact, he continues to inspire us all.
We are grateful to have Captain Brantley as part of our Conway community and thankful for the example he sets for our students and staff. ❤️💙
