Conway High School’s Key Club members just returned from their District Leadership Conference, where they competed against clubs from across Missouri and Arkansas—and brought home some big honors! 🎉
The club earned 1st place for their 100-page scrapbook highlighting the incredible work they’ve done this year, as well as 2nd place in Major Emphasis, which recognizes a club’s year-long service focus. This year’s emphasis was supporting Conway’s youth.
Over the past year, CHS Key Club members completed 16 service projects and contributed 948 hours of service to Conway athletic programs, middle schools, elementary schools, Kiwanis, and Community Connections.
Two members also served on the district executive board this year: Heidy Hernandez Lagos as Secretary and Nicole Reynolds as District 9 Lieutenant Governor. These students helped organize a three-day conference for more than 250 students from across two states!
If you see a Key Club member today, be sure to congratulate them for their dedication to service and leadership! 💙 #WampusCatPride

Our future healthcare professionals are getting hands-on experience! 🩺
Students in the Registered Medical Assistant program recently practiced both their medical skills and their acting skills while simulating a “day in the life” of an RMA. From patient interactions to drawing blood, these students are building the real-world skills they’ll need in the healthcare field.
And don’t worry… that’s a fake arm they’re practicing on! 💉
