In our AR-themed classroom, students have been exploring the fascinating world of frogs and toads in celebration of Toad Suck Daze. Tayden shared special family photos of his great-grandfather, Jim Stone, who proudly served as the very first Toad Master for nine years—a wonderful connection to our local tradition!

During dramatic play, students have also been bringing their creativity to life by acting out camping adventures, building storytelling skills and teamwork along the way. We love seeing their imaginations grow!

Our staff recently had the wonderful opportunity to tap into their creativity and enjoy a guided painting experience, made possible by Branch Out here in Conway. It was a refreshing and engaging way for our team to unwind, connect, and express themselves artistically. We are truly grateful to Branch Out for providing such a fun and inspiring experience—thank you for helping our staff get their creative juices flowing!

I would like to recommend this staff member for Staff Member of the Month at Sallie Cone Preschool. She consistently demonstrates a strong commitment to our school community by arriving early each day, staying on schedule, and serving as a positive role model for her colleagues. Her kind and gentle approach with students creates a nurturing and supportive learning environment where all children can thrive. She truly goes above and beyond in her role, even taking initiative to write grants that directly benefit our school. Additionally, her dedication to continuous growth is evident as she pursues further education, reflecting her commitment to excellence in early childhood education. Most importantly, she wholeheartedly believes in the mission of Sallie Cone Preschool, and that passion is evident in all that she does.

Now, please join us in recognizing our Employee of the Month for March—Officer Wheeler!

CPSD Staff & Families,

We want to provide another follow-up regarding the image circulating on social media last night that contained a threatening message.

The Conway Police Department shared:
“At approximately 10:00 p.m., detectives with the Conway Police Department took a 13-year-old female Conway Student into custody in connection with reported threats made on social media.
The juvenile has been charged with Threatening to Commit an Act of Mass Violence on School Property, a Class C felony, and is currently being held at a juvenile detention center.
At this time, no other suspects are believed to be involved.
This incident remains under active investigation.
We appreciate the public’s cooperation and assistance throughout this investigation.”


School will be in session today. The safety and security of our students and staff remain our top priority.

We want to extend our sincere appreciation to the Conway Police Department and our School Resource Officers for their swift response and dedication in handling this situation. Their ability to act quickly and work thoroughly was instrumental in helping ensure the safety of our students and staff.
