Now, please join us in recognizing our Employee of the Month for March—Officer Wheeler! He has been an incredible support to our school, stopping by daily to check doors, connect with administration, and help address any concerns. He also played a key role in improving our parking lot procedures, making drop-off and pick-up safer for our families and students.
Thank you, Officer Wheeler, for your dedication and service!
School Choice is Open!
Want to request a transfer for the 2026-27 school year? The deadline is June 1.

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.
CPSD Families,
We want to provide a follow-up regarding the image circulating on social media that contains a threatening message.
At this time, there is no new information regarding the credibility or origin of the message. The matter remains under active investigation by local law enforcement, and we are continuing to work closely with them.
School will be in session tomorrow, and we will continue to be vigilant with all our safety measures across all campuses. The safety and security of our students and staff remain our top priority.
We understand that families may have concerns, and we respect each parent/guardian's decision regarding attendance. As always, please make the decision that is best for your student and your family.

Our students are strengthening their working memory by participating in fun memory games! These activities help them practice remembering information, staying focused, and thinking carefully as they play.
Our students have been exploring the beauty of nature through creativity and hands-on learning! From making pictures inspired by the natural world to designing beautiful flower arrangements, they are discovering the colors, textures, and patterns all around us. 🌿
We are learning all about keeping our bodies healthy! From caring for our teeth to understanding how our bodies work, students explored simple ways to stay strong and feel their best.
Healthy habits help build happy hearts, bright smiles, and growing minds! 😊
Our students are putting their creativity and imagination to the test, designing, building, problem-solving, and bringing their ideas to life. It’s amazing to watch their confidence grow as they turn simple materials into incredible creations!
Hands-on learning at its best, where big ideas start small and innovation takes shape every day. 💡🚀
🍎 Mrs. Carter goes above and beyond every single day in her classroom. She creates engaging, meaningful lessons and activities that inspire her students to learn and grow. Her classroom is a warm, safe, and inviting space where students feel supported and encouraged. It’s no surprise her students adore her! We are so grateful to have Mrs. Carter as part of the Sallie Cone family.
🌟 Mr. Rose truly exemplifies what it means to be a team player. He is always willing to help wherever he is needed and brings incredible energy to our school. He creates exciting and engaging activities for his class, and his enthusiasm makes a lasting impact on his students. They love him, and so do we!
