CPSD Return to School Update
We are excited to welcome students and staff back to school on Monday, February 2nd, 2026, after a week of closures caused by the recent snow and ice storm.
All schools will operate on normal start times; however, snow bus routes will be in effect to ensure safe transportation for students. Families are encouraged to review snow route information prior to Monday morning.
🔗 Snow Bus Route Information:
CPSD Snow Routes
Our teams have continued working to prepare school campuses for a safe return. They have done a great job with sidewalks but please utilize caution in shaded areas. Also, a big shout out to the City of Conway, Faulkner County, and groups who were also a part of the clearing process. We can not thank you all enough for the hard work!
We will provide updates regarding snow make-up days as soon as that information becomes available.
Thank you for your understanding and support. We look forward to a smooth return to school on Monday.
⚠️ School Closing
Conway Schools and offices will be closed Friday, January 30th, 2026.
While the warmer temperatures over the past two days have helped improve some conditions, travel throughout the district including access to side streets, driveways, and neighborhoods continues to be impacted.
Our crews are continuing to work diligently to clear each of our campuses and are preparing for a safe return to school soon.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we prioritize safety and continue to monitor conditions.
⚠️ School Closing
Conway Schools and offices will be closed Thursday, January 29th, 2026, due to icy road conditions throughout the district.
We continue to monitor conditions closely as crews work to address sidewalks, parking areas, and campus access. Many bus routes, particularly rural routes, remain impacted, and overnight low temperatures will continue to delay a safe return.
The decision to close is based on ensuring the safety of our students, staff, and families. We will communicate any additional closures or delays as conditions evolve.
Please stay safe and warm Wampus Cats!

Weather Update: Monitoring Conditions for Friday
Good evening Conway Public Schools,
We are continuing to closely monitor the incoming weather system and will evaluate updated conditions tomorrow morning as forecasts continue to change.
If weather conditions warrant, we may pivot to a two-hour early release on Friday to ensure the safety of our students, staff and families. Should that occur, the following dismissal times would apply:
Elementary Schools: 1:15 p.m.
Secondary Schools (Middle Schools, CJHS, & CHS): 1:30 p.m.
If an early release is implemented, end-of-day dismissal procedures would remain normal, buses would run their regular routes, and all after-school activities and programs would be canceled.
We will communicate any decision as soon as it is made. Please continue to monitor your email, phone messages, and district communication channels for updates. If no additional communication is issued, schools will follow their regular dismissal schedules.
Our team will continue monitoring the weather throughout the weekend and will provide updates regarding any additional school closings or delays as needed.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we prioritize safety. Please stay safe and warm.
Sincerely,
Conway Public Schools
Smiles, style, and a whole lot of great hats!

Using a Play-Doh mat to create construction safety hats, students strengthened their fine motor skills while having fun. They counted and sorted cars to build early math skills like number recognition and one-to-one correspondence, and explored letter shapes while continuing to develop those little hand muscles.
So much learning packed into playful moments! 💛✨
We played in oobleck, explored some very “smelly” bottles 🤭, and used all five senses to investigate an orange 🍊
Messy hands, curious minds, and lots of learning! 💛
Planning, building, creating, and exploring concepts like structure, letters, and patterns—our students are learning through hands-on discovery. With trial and error, they carefully place each block to see what makes their towers topple or stand strong. So much thinking, creativity, and fun! 💕
We constructed cube machines and built sentences, combining creativity, problem-solving, and early literacy all in one fun-filled space. Hands-on learning and proud smiles everywhere! 💕📚

Our students have been busy sorting animals and counting objects, building early math skills while exploring.
Our Right Brain students have been busy designing and measuring ramps, stacking towers of cups to find the perfect balance, and creating fun shape windows to peek through. Curious minds, busy hands, and lots of learning happening along the way! 🧠🎨🧱
🎅🥕 Learning About Healthy Choices! 🥦🍎
We talked about making healthy food choices! Using a template from our book, each group worked together to plan a healthy dinner for Santa—before he eats all those cookies 🍪😉. The kids had so much fun collaborating and thinking about foods that help keep Santa strong and energized!
