Conway Family, it is that time! Our High School Lady Cat Volleyball team will be in the drop off line tomorrow morning (October 9th) to collect change for their Pink Night Recipient, Emmersyn Caldwell! Get your change ready and help us support Emmersyn!
Emmersyn is a 9th grader at Conway Junior High School. She was a member of the Conway Junior High Volleyball team when she began to experience joint pain. After blood work, she was diagnosed with Leukemia and began chemo treatments in May of this year. Emmersyn is still fighting and undergoing treatment.

Let’s be honest, these tech heroes do way more than just fix Chromebooks and reset passwords. They are the digital guardians keeping our entire school network cybersafe and secure every single day. Behind the scenes, they're constantly fending off sneaky phishing attempts, locking down student data privacy, and testing software updates at odd hours so teaching never misses a beat.
Thank you for working hard behind the screens to keep our digital world safe and spinning. You are vital players on Team Conway! 🖥️🐾

Welcome Back!
As students and staff return to school for another year, let’s all do our part in keeping safety at the forefront of our minds at school, at home, and on the road.
· Watch for school buses. Slow down and never pass a stopped school bus with its lights flashing.
· Drive safely in school zones. Slow down, pay attention, and watch carefully for students, parents, crossing guards, and school staff.
· Stay alert. It only takes a few seconds of distraction to change a life forever.
· School safety starts when we leave our homes. It doesn’t just depend on what happens inside our school buildings.
Let’s work together to ensure every student and staff member arrives at school and returns home Safe and Sound.
The volume of traffic will increase this week. Please be patient as we work together getting back in the routine of drop off and pick up.
Welcome back, Wampus Cats!
